I don't see how the car engines will keep up with the liter bike engine? 200 lbs less weight requirement and they make more power stock. bike engines will last 3-4 seasons without being freshened up and throw cam sprockets, head gasket and tune and you're looking at 170 whp easy.
I thought it would be interesting to race D2 midgets competitively but also race some bucket list races with the same package. Ie chili bowl, midget week etc. but without being able to put a K20 head on the K24a1 seems like they will be dogs and there is no use in running with the midgets. I would run a short track national race with 270hp but definitely not with 200. So that's what intrigued me to do a non chain drive car but I think the liter bike engines will be superior.
I think this D2 deal is awesome and definitely something that needed to happen for a long time.
