Wankel *******? ![hiha](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/roflmao.gif)
Cool historical find!![thumbup](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/thumbup.gif)
This looks to be published in the development period leading up to NSU putting Wankel engines into production cars, when they were still full of hope about them. Kind of a tragic footnote then that the Wankel engine essentially killed NSU.
Then to bring this full circle, as most know our 924/944 family were assembled in the old NSU-turned-Audi plant in Neckarsulm. Kind of like moving into a house somebody was murdered in, lol. Fortunately any lingering bad juju appears to have evaporated in the years prior to the 924s.
