Class 5 question
 
Is there a HP limit and a limit on what type a drive that can be used in Class 5.
Is the Ilmor 625 or 650 with the Indy Drive legal,
I think the lowest HP running in class 5 is at 560+ with the 525...so I would think 625 or 650 would be OK...but with all the drives out there IMCO, Merc, Konrad, Ilmor ects, is there a cut off to what we can use...

I agree ;)

MANITIE 02-26-2010 10:43 AM

Well the cool thing is if you look at all the Class 5 boats...there are a number of engine manufactures and builders being run, Crocket, Saris, Merc, maybe Ilmor, Midigator has ther engine builder, Eddies einge...its not spec racing but opens the door to so many option of engines to run....which is a good thing for the sport

Thought crockett was running 6? I'm looking forward to the battle of engine makers...maybe a dyno runoff needs to be added to the competition?!

So do we impose the no boosted rule now or when someone shows up with 1200hp?????:party-smiley-004:

I think Tyler is running 6....but I know his engines have been run in Class 5 and in Class 6.

DriverofDonzi 02-26-2010 01:39 PM

Yes, Tyler will be racing in class 6 this year. He ran in class 5 last year.
