RICE RACING will become famous soon enough
Barry your PTO shaft idea is a little off base.

We are not talking about "gearing down" the actual cycle itself, that is a non negotiable part of any engine cycle be it 2 cycle, 4 cycle or Wankel.

I can see what you and everyone else including Mazda is saying (1.3lt for 13B chamber capacity), that is a given. But its an odd engine by nature that it has common combustion chamber, intake and exhaust ports . I only look at all motors in their complete "cycles". See my earlier posts.

Equivalence (just based on the physical displacement to time across all three established engine types allows them to race).

The Mazda 787B only had "good economy" cause it had Group B weight breaks on its side V's the Sauber and Porsche and Jaguar cars, nothing more, it was a smaller and lighter car, and had allot less power (250+bhp less than the Sauber in race trim!)... It was very light weight with moderate power, but with EXCELLENT ROTARY ENGINE RACE DURABILITY. Mazda's have always expolited the rules to get a favorable advantage in racing, the one biggest factor they have had over others is astounding reliability and durability in race trim, rather than any outright speed.
