We have plenty of engine options, built into our rule book, which some/most probably either don't read/understand. The "new" rule on weight, is car/driver 800lbs, it was, 625lbs, car only, so did it change any? The idea here, is to "level" the playing field, and not hurt any one's wallet too bad, yes, some may have to add weight, some quite a bit, some none, or very little, but, the more you add to the bottom, it just takes that much off the top, so to speak, and yes, it may take a bit of ingenuity to do it, and be sure it will stay, but there are ways to do it, and not even see it. I don't think opening up the engine specs would be wise, as I said, there are plenty of options in the rule book now. Bob
