Didn’t go much better when Jack in the Crack tried outsourcing its drive-thus 15 years ago.

Completely irrational NP from me. Grew up seemingly surrounded by Wankels. Everything from a R/C Wankel to a Wankel powered Lotus Super 7 that used to take FTD at all the club events. Neighbor kid had a Racing Beated out Mazda Pickup. Could hear it coming a mile away.

...resulted in a 71 percent No Dice loss, making it the latest in a string of downvotes.

Next door neighbor put the wrong reach plugs in his RX4. Knocked all the apex seals off. Upside was, we got to rebuild a Wankel!

All fun and games until someone falls asleep at the tiller.

Flat nailed it. On a roll for sure.

Barrett-Jackson back in 2009.

The tablecloth silliness started when NASCAR decided to spice things up by awarding a sizable chunk of change for the car leading Daytona at the half way point.

[Allegedly Fremont, Ohio. Not my pic.]

Not enough tech to keep journalists from breaking something. <seg>
