Insane fun pikes peak run! Livestream tomorrow 4pm pst

Omg that was the most fun I’ve ever had driving. I was faster than mad Mike by 1-2 seconds for most of the run. Until I wasn’t. Crazy twist of events! The engine is fine. It was the turbo that ...

Link for livestream data!! Even with only 1/3 of the race

This will only be live when the car is on. But you can tune in and watch it warm up real time! Buggy potentially but sick possibility. Winds canceled the 2/3 if the race. Super super gutted but at ...

1 Rotor build livestream tomorrow 1pm PST

It’s actually happening!! Painful getting to this step surprisingly. But it’s been a minute since I’ve gotten to build a new type of rotary and it’s soooo weird. I don’t even know if we c...

Duct installed! Surprisingly solid!

Really happy with this. Working the bugs out so I can do the 4 rotor perfectly!

Very first 3d print! Pikes peak ducting!!

I printed it in white because I expected it to fail or be useless. Surprisingly useful for the first ever print!

The 12 Rotor is in the Dragster!!!

Nothing else needs to be said.

Test assembling my first piston engine!

This is so weird and complicated. But I love it. Definitely makes me appreciate rotary more and see how we can refine them. But I built that entire head from scratch using used parts. Finally under...

Fire way to start the week! 12 rotor dyno getting hot!

We are finally making progress on the power! But it turned into fire. This is after the fire was out but we made 1300tq and 1500hp before pulling out. Bad internet here but I’ll try to capture th...

Indycar transmission reassembly time!

The guys are at Ed pink setting up the 12 rotor for the final dyno session hopefully. So I have a clean air shop to reassemble the Indycar transmission. I can tell it’ll come back down soon for m...

Indycar development! Pretty good for only measuring by hand

Entire Cosworth XD history available only to Patreon

As we scan all of the paperwork you can see all of it here and updated as we get the other boxes scanned in. I currently have 27 and 28 in the shop. Fascinating how detailed they are

Fuel pump adapter created for the Indycar! It can finally go together!!

This is super challenging to do on a 3 axis cnc haha. The oring groove and the threaded piece all unique challenges

First attempt at using AR to fit the 12R. Insane

We already have the chromoly and a solid plan. But with the engine waiting at Ed Pink for the engine dyno next week I wanted to give the guys a way to visual and trust the process.

Drag chassis modeled and tested!!

So so so powerful. I worked hard over the weekend to learn tubing modeling. This is the current dragster chassis with 12 Rotor base power applied. So it’s all estimating 1000ft lbs of torque from...

The forbidden 12R Miata haha

THE ONE ROTOR IS HERE!

This is the only time in history 1-12 has been in one pic. Of course Mazzei had to go and invent a 5 rotor so technically that’s missing. Going to have a fun time twisting peoples expectations w...
