Autotech Motorsports is testing a 23A & 17A E-shaft thats based on the 12A engine. But who knows when they will be finished. An 23A motor would perfect for a RX7 or RX8.

I've seen those before. I would love to build a 3-Rotor 12A. I would love to hear how it sounds

Sure they finished building a "Functional Prototype", but try order one. They will tell you that they are still working on it and they told me that a year ago.

Does Hurley engineering not have everything ranging from 3 rotor to 6 rotor 12a based e-shafts.

Suposivly their n/a 6 rotor 12a based 34A has 900hp, and probably close to that much torque.

Man I want to see more videos of the scoot 4 rotor. Actual car moving and racing videos, not some engine rev videos. That car is far too special to not have videos everywhere on the net.

Ha, I'm local to that shop and it's been years since they last had any progress on it. Sure, they ran the engine, but I don't think they were happy with it and have since tore down the engine to rework things. It is more of a side project for them, but I believe if they had more funds they would probably be eager to finish it.

Wish they would sell the plans to Racing Beat. They would have builded in a couple months.

I'm not so sure they could have BUILDED it any sooner. But someone should certainly take to the main stage with one of these. I'd like to see one of them in a racing series, but they would probably get horrible gas mileage

Racing Beat has the engineering and experience to whip something like this up, but the market would be very small and the cost of the parts would be outrageous.
