The front rotor was alread blown, no radiator cap, and still ran for just shy of 7 mins at 9,000!!!! RPM. Simply awesome. Gotta love our engines. (They also said that the fresh rebuild was sitting in the garage, ready to go into the car.)

Chris- still proud of the rotary

hmmm last i checked the flywheel wasn't connected to the clutch.

Well, the pressure plate is connected and could have burst. For you kids out there, dont try this at home. This guy was lucky. If the engine locked suddenly at 9K parts would have ripped off.
