I brought this up a while back but now have more information.
The crate engine sprint program is expanding. It started in Ohsweken Speedway in Canada with the 602 crate engine. In their first year they are getting close to 20 cars and everyone is happy with the program and are very competitive.
They are also running with the 305s at Mercer in PA.
Wilmot Speedway in Wisconsin just announce they are adding a crate engine division next year and are leaning towards the 604 engine.
The main difference is that the 602 engines at a $3,200 cost and a no rebuild policy versus $5,700 for the 604 engine that allows rebuilds at approved rebuilders.
Both run carbs on alcohol.
So far the 602 tracks are running with wings and Wilmot will be non-wing but the cars can run either way.
Racesaver 305 engines are advertised from $10,000 to $17,000.
