Maybe those things wouldn't do it either and who knows if the extra expense would make it cost prohibitive. I understand you can't have all the power and torque you want without the expense associated, but the gap is still too noticeable for me and many others to just ignore or accept as the new normal.
Leftrear, thank you for taking the time to make your first post on IOW. Always great to see fans of the Badger Midgets supporting the series. Midget98, I guess this is where we have to agree to disagree but know that I value your opinion. Please send me a PM with your name and phone number. I would love to chat more about this with you over the phone some time.

For the record for everyone, Scott Hatton set a new 20 lap track record in 2017 at Angell Park Speedway using a Badger Honda. He bested a mark set by a Fontana engine driven by Bill Balog from 2015.
