Hi everyone

This looks like a great forum with alot of smart people, Im looking forward to meeting you all. My name is Bobby Jones and I have had rotarys on the brain since I was 12 years old, my dad took me to a race with some bridge ported mazdas throwing flames out the side of their cars and I was like " WOW !!" What was that !!!??? He said a wankel son, I said a what?? He said a rotary engine, I ask him what is that? He told me, well son...It doesn't have any pistons. That blew my mind! And to make a long story short he took me to the local library and found me a book on Felix Wankel and I was shocked by the design of the coolest engine ever built, been in love every since. Have owned Rx7's since 1985, and am currently building a 20b 93 to drive to the DGRR to meet all of you, and am looking very forward to it, Thanks Bob

I dont have many pics yet since the car was recently soda blasted and is still geting painted, but I will post a few when I get a chance, recently I bought a 20b and haltech from Bryan at BNR, a very nice guy, he had a complete engine threw in a bunch of extras, and was very helpful. I have a long way to go and a short time to get there so I may start a thread for parts needed or technical advice from some of you pros who have already been there, I will appreciate any help I can get, dont like doing things twice
