This is for all of you that are intersted in learning about rotary engines. Since there is alot of information on these engines, I have just gone and gathered URL's together since they can explain it better than I can. ;)

Just did some reading, they are actually pretty easy little buggers once you free your mind a little. I just needed to figure out where the intake and exhaust factored into the equation. Now I realize that everything is dependant on rotor position in the housing in relation to the intake and exhaust ports.
