Pete, I really enjoyes that trip aroundthe track, reminded me of my youte. Our rules had a 2400 lb weight min, so were much lighter than these cars, but the engines were still 258 ci
We had the engine tuned on a chassis dyno once and it made 127HP. how the driver said the car didn't have the pull off the corners so we put it back to where it was. Sometimes the numbers don't mean much. However the short tracks are the best visual racing you can find.
Gramps.
