Hi all,

Never sure where to start with intro's!
Ive enjoyed many years working with rotary engines going back to the mid 90's when I first worked as a development engineer for a company in the UK that used to be Norton Motorbikes. We developed these engines for non automotive applications.

I'm still working on them to this day (but for a different company) based in Lichfield UK.

We are working with a UK company (Westfield) to get a new rotary car up and running next year, so exciting times!!

Personally I'm looking at buying a project car - would love an RX7 but seem very expensive so will probably go RX8.

Rotary Car Club looks great so really looking forward to finding out what I need to do to get a decent Hillclimb car built!! Probably lots of late nights in the garage I expect!!

Cheers,

Andy T

... or you could go the engine swap route. Lots of great lightweight British cars that would benefit from a rotary heart transplant. I see a lot of MG Midgets, and others, getting Rover K series transplants over there, but almost never a rotary engine. These swaps seem to be mostly done here in North America or by some of the more deranged Aussies.

Either way, welcome and pictures are always good. We are a rather simple minded bunch. ;)

Welcome! I'm interested in the new rotary car you're talking about.
