Derwin said that the racer’s engine has a semi-peripheral intake system, which should give the car at least 600 horsepower. Derwin outsources the eccentric shafts in New Zealand, which is basically the rotary nirvana of the world, but the rest of the engine will be custom-built in the house.

I have always loved that picture.

But it is kind of true. A Rotary engine does have 1 power stroke for each revolution of the engine. Just tends to be crap on fuel, and yep, those apex seals.
