I was just going over your engine rules. According to your rules all Kawasaki ZX10R, Most Suzuki gsxr 1000, and Hybusa engins are illeagle. They all come stock with titanium valve in place. Kawasaki has just come out with a zx14R just to compete with the Hybusa that I think should also be considered for your drive shaft cars.

i think this will clarify that

no titanium parts of any kind on car unless they come stock in the engine....AND THAT IS WHY THE RULE IS 1352cc TO COVER THE ZX14

The 2012 zx14r is 1441 cc. They have compleatly redone the motor with one thing in mind-being the fastest motorcycle on the planet.
So suzuki will follow and the war begins all over just like the 1000cc bikes.

I really think you are going to stray away from low cost racing by including the rear ends. You are going to need a whole lot more motor (torque) to pull those things. Like I said at Tulsa The echotec and us were turning about the same time and they have a lot bigger motor than we like 2400 cc's. You could take one of them and a Tilton clutch starter deal and make a neat race car that would run with a 1000cc sprint, but I feel the motorcycle engine cars are going to be a little disapointed if they can indeed pull the thing off.


That is the good thing about having a benlovent dictator in charge, better to make those calls before the race than after.

Keep the rules simple, every cost cutting rule tends to up the cost of racing for the racer. Love my adjustable shocks I can do the same with one shock as it use to take me six shocks.
