New Nitro 2wd Puller; Finished!

The engines on my new project are two Wankel / Rotary engines on which I connected the crankshafts to form 1 dual rotor 0.60 Cu/In engine.

We started it for the first time yesterday and it ran beyond expectations! The sound isn't like anything I've ever heard before. Some of the bystanders compared it with the sound of an onroad motorcycle or a sportscar!
The throttle response is really "snappy" and it guzzles fuel like there's no tomorrow!

After some running in, I carefully tried to move the sled, but unfortunately, the clutch slipped, so I'll do some adjusting and try again next weekend.

That does look pretty cool. What is the motot setup on the lower pic I see two carbs? Looking good though.

Sorry guys, I won't be at the Worlds, because actually I'm from Holland (The Netherlands) When I get the chance, I'd like to visit the US and watch / do some pulling there sometime though!

Here's a quick shot of the progress on the Wankel-puller:

We had another competition yesterday. After having made some changes to the gearing and the pipe, I finally got the ducted-fan on the Aces High to run like it should.



The rear-tires ballooned a bit more than I expected, that's why the body was thrown off (luckily there was no damage done) With the power this engine produces now, I have some good prospects for the future :p
