USAC has only just now updated the Rules section on usacracing.com, changing out the old Appendix "E" for Ignite Midgets with a new HPD Midget section. Of note is the fact that Focus engines are still legal (not unexpected; I'm sure there will be a grandfather period although I didn't see one listed), and the fact that the Rules regarding the Honda K24 engine are still incomplete. My guess is there are still R&D issues to be resolved; I had heard from someone involved in some of the testing late last year (who shall go unnamed because he made me swear I would maintain his anonymity) that they were experiencing overheating issues on the Ignite fuel, which may be one of the reasons that Focus engines are now required to run straight methanol and the K24 is mandated to burn VP C85 ethanol.
