Buttery Driving

a: Wankel engine ~
b: butter

What: "There is no engine on the face of the earth, besides maybe the the twin turbo v12 in the Rollers out there with smoother power delivery than the 13b or any of its variants. The Wankel is like butter all the way up to 9k rpm and back again, its a completely different experience than a piston engine, it almost makes piston engines seem....vulgar"
