I like that name, engines are going to evolve year by year. The problems with most forms of auto racing is they get all tied up with their power plants. Like the 3/4 Midgets and the old Crosley 45, then the 750 Honda. the Sprint Cars and their 265 Chevy motors that date all the way back to 1955, and last but sure not least the Mighty Midgets and their Ford Pinto Esslinger engines or Even the new $60,000.00 Push rod Toyota TRO race motors. When each of these motors came out they were all considered to have revolutionized the auto and racing Industry. Well most of these motors are now all over 40 and 50 year old in their designs. I am a young man when it comes to thinking about racing. I have always wanted the latest and greatest. The problem with most racers is they tend to get into a comfort zone and stick with what they have with minor improvements in engine design as time goes by.. I was just talking to a guy that had bought an new Esslinger Tall head. They straightened the ports out a little to make a better window for the intake charge and are asking a king's Ransom to purchase one from them, and they will only guarantee another 20 or so horsepower. Why would any sane person invest so much time and fortune into a 40 year old engine design.
