NASA invented a space ship powered by a rotary engine? Noice, at least until the apex seals give out, but they should be good for 80k at least.
Wankel and Mazda shine blessings upon you and your RX family
The wankel and rdre aren't really related, but they're similar in that they're both oddball engines with surprising performance.
