Dry sump oil system allowed. Hate to see this get started.

WIMS is 74" to more easily accommodate Henchcrafts and the numerous midget-based cars in the group

What's the problem with drysumps? Improved engine reliability and no on-track performance advantage. If anything, the extra weight is a disadvantage. Wetsump- lighter and faster, drysump- heavier, but more reliable. Don't want a drysump, don't buy one... buy motors more often instead.
