I think you are wrong about the possible HP gains Jim. The 600 race engine builders of MUCH MODIFIED ALKY engines are getting about 125 hp. In any case we are talking stock engines here & they will probably get 3 to 5 hp from pipes. If they make too much power we will have to restrict them.
I already have 4 or 5 good drivers who want to drive the car this year & I hope they will make plenty of public comments about the engine. Thanks ...

This has been proven over and over again since the beginning of car racing. For the sake of keeping both the 2 stroke/CVT and MC choices roughly equal, this additional HP has to be kept in the calculation. Jim -- No virus found in this incoming message.
