Yeah, back to looking at 2.2 and 2.4 engines while day dreaming. Not sure it is relational...
Just curious If there are any significant handling/weight advantages. I don’t think so, so does it come down to aesthetics of how the engine spin and sound? I will duck and cover now... |

Amen Clay. I've seen different versions of that scenario play out all my life at different tracks. My friends and I used to rent tracks to do our own track days. We ran 1 session of motorcyles and Go-Karts combined. I rode my race prepped CBR 600 race bike. I could easily pull the Karts on the straights but there was no way to keep up with them in the corners. Since the bulk of any roadcourse track is corners. The Go-Karts eventually gap the bikes. |
