A 12 rotor V engine? That makes me a little dizzy. I'd love to hear one, maybe drive one, but I can't imagine how much money and time it takes to keep it running.

Oh, we accidently boosted to 60 PSI and threw 36 apex seals? =

Many times I have said "Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should" In this case, yes, yes you should.
