If there is anyone interested in rotary engines other than Wankel's, check out

 They supposedly
have developed a rotary that produces 2 to 4 times the power of a Wankel 13B
at
half the weight.  Not to mention, they recently signed a contract with Ford to
start producing oil pumps (rotary) to be installed in cars as early as this
year.  They plan on breaking into the automotive engine market within the next
2 to 5 years.  If I remeber correctly, Ford has a financial stake in Mazda.
Maybe this is the next rotary for Mazda.

I first heard about the Rand Cam several years ago.
I think it is a stock scam. There is a big difference between a pump 
and an internal combustion engine. There have been literally scores
of rotary engine concepts over the years. The Wankel is the only one
ever
to make it into high volume production. I am not talking about the
rotary 
radial engines of WW I.
