We were out doing pulls on the highway (in Mexico of course!) tuning it. It was pulling really strong. Had a little bit of break up but we were working on that. Then we had a huge boost spike a pop goes the weasel basically. We towed it up to a shop near Asheville yesterday for a rebuild. The guy there, who pretty much only works on rotary engines, said that if it blew a corner seal the way it happened, whoever rebuilt it last (just before Geoff bought the car) either didn't do a good job or didn't put the parts they said they did in the motor. We'll find out today as he said he would have the engine out and torn down by this afternoon...
