On this day in 1896 the first rotary powered car ever was built! Of course it wasn't a Wankel engine, but it was an air-cooled radial 3 cylinder designed by a guy named Stephen Balzer which was a pretty neat little thing.

I don't think I would want a rotary powered wheelchair with a modern rotary motor on it lol. Maybe a golf cart with a 4 port msp on it though.
