Pace Performance in Boardman Ohio now has developed both a 602 and 525 sprint engines. Might want to consider something like that. The new Dirtcar Pro Sprints will use the triple sealed 602 engine.
If you want to keep the cost associated with the wings down take the wickerbills off and mandate a flat wing. I'd love to see MSR and AVSS go to a flat wing without a wickerbill.
We already have two viable pavement wing series now . And I'm pretty sure we're good right where were at Now if you're talking dirt that's a whole different story
