The center exhaust port handles the exhaust from one cylinder at time, so the port actually flows better than the end ports. Yes it gets hotter: however, I think the block is designed to handle that, or it would have caused more trouble at an earler date. As for racing, I think it depends on the type of racing. For short track, not an issue. For blown , or fuel, maybe alittle bit.
