Jay, can you give us a run-down on who was running 494 and 493 engines at the 
Runoffs? I have no way of knowing who ran which engine. Thanks! Stan

respect all that Tony has done for F500.  I also know that F500 is not a
huge part of his business as he sells a lot of kart engines which has been his 
major business for many years.

I think it is important to look at the qualifying times from the Runoffs
last year & you will see that the 493 with the added 50 lbs is absolutely
equal to the 494.  Admittedly Brian Novak turned the fastest race lap by
less than .1 seconds with a 494, but that "super trick" car is now illegal.
There were several 493s within .1 or .2 seconds in both qualifying & the
race.  This indicates to me that the 493 with 50 lbs & the 494 are extremely 
close from a competitive perspective.
