I kinda of assumed you would be the guy to get er done. I am kinda of working on an Idea conglomerating the classes. These Ecotec's are neat, they have more than enough power stock to put on a good race. Motors are cheap and plentiful. Us cycle racers have to spend a whole lot more to buy an engine and we are competing against one another for the same motor. Race cars wear out, Yeh I know some may take 30 or so years to do that but they do wear out. When you stop to think about it TQ's Mini Sprints and now Ecotecs or Focus powered midgets are awfully close together. If and when we started racing together the better formula would win out. Right now today I would say Ecotec's are the best choice. But they have a hard time making a field because of the times more so than anything else.
I may be a Quack but I sure like looking down the road to another Midget division that combines all of these more affordable classes together.
We have raced Min Sprints with TQ's and we have raced Mini Sprints with Ecotecs>>>>>>and I can tell you there sure isn't much difference.
When you guys start looking at those $2000.00 600cc motors remember that the Junk yard down the road has a motor that will do the same thing for $300.00.
