One thing you have to think about, you have X amount of weight, and Y amount traction. You could double the horsepower, but you will only a little faster lap times. You're only going to increase the accelleration from corner to corner, and some top end... I think you're on the right path, you would need more motor and wings to get closer. The current 600's are around 110 to 120 hp, correct me if I'm wrong but the 500's are in the 90's.. CR

I am 3 to 5 sec's off the formula mazda's we all run together and are grouped together how much time difference should there be between a 600 and a 494 average? could I make up that 3 to 4 sec's? How much time will a wing cut off on the average lap? I am tired of racing my self. --------------------------------- TV dinner still cooling? Check out "Tonight's Picks" on Yahoo!
