George [Payne],

Those housings look like aluminum castings, correct? If so, this should

make

the engines substantially lighter than Mazda. Looking at your website
though, the smaller engines sound quite light, but the bigger ones don't
seem as light as one would expect.

I'm not that far from you -- just north of Barrie -- and would be

interested

in paying you a visit, seeing your facility and getting the full story

from

you. I'm sure a lot of people here would appreciate such a report.


Regards,

Gordon.

Gordon,
That would be an excellent idea. If George is very busy and I'm sure he is,
someone from the discussion group ( like yourself) would know what
information we are looking for, in seals, surface treatments, reliability
and longevity.

I am surprised there is not a complete blurb (inventory) of engine
parameters and specifications for the consumer to evaluate - as is usual in
new engine releases.

There is more info on the old Wankel site.

Gordon,
You would be very welcome to pay us a visit. I'll be happy to fill you in.
Let me know when and we can arrange to meet.
Our website is up now (still a couple of minor revisions to make).

In the meantime we're answering questions as they come along.

I will be visiting the folks at Global Rotary Power on Wednesday. George
Payne will meet with me and give me all the info, I'm sure. He has already
sent me a copy of their business plan but has asked me not to divulge
details, for obvious reasons.

I will be taking up with GPR issues you mentioned, such as seals, surface
treatments etc. Unfortunately, I'm not that technically fluent on these
matters, certainly not on the level of yourself, Paul and others -- but I
will try to get the best info possible -- and I'm sure George Payne will
provide further clarification on this forum if needed.

I will file a report and pictures as soon as I return.

Regards,

Gordon.
