A lot of thoughts come to mind. I just hope he's actually testing the theory, I've been looking forward to updates and progress for the rotary. If I had the money I'd give it a shot.

Things leak when there is a pressure differential, and in the case of those two chambers over the leading spark plug hole, there is relatively none at the time the apex seal passes over it. It is designed this way for a reason.

This is exactly what I said earlier.

Great thread!
