11k isn't bad for a race winning engine (if it is)

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

As with all such engines, they are built for a reason. I'm sure it could be built for less though.

Headline figures are great though.

Im sure matt woods spent alot less and he got 300bhp!
Some of these race spec engines to meet regulations have a hige markup on them just because they can it seems very unfair imo

Paul you might as well compare how much it costs to build a big block v8 In a garden shed haha, your comparison is irrelevant :/ how much would you say is a fair price? race winning engines from decent company's cost money end of... If you can do better for less then get building mate *wink*
I've seen how many of those swiftune motors they go through at spa 6 hours too its pretty crazy the money involved in historic racing!

Speeding is like masturbating, everyone does it, but not all of us film it and put it on the internet

most pointless post ever really. how can you compare matt woods engine to something that's built to regulation race spec. most of the time these engines are built by companies for rich people to win; building a race winning engine to historic regs takes time and time = money. Yeh money could be saved if done in a shed but it wasn't.

I've seen a friend build his race engines to historic regs and he measures it more times than i know what and to stupid thou tolerances. It even shocked me how much those engines cost to build but when you see the time it does make sense.

You guys seen what the class 4 grass track boys spend!!

They have something like an 1120 cc limit, rev to 10k and put out over 140bhp.

Stupid money is spent on these cars, especially to go around a dirt oval!!

Good to look at though and I'm sure they all think I'm mad for spending time and money going up short bits of hill chasing a time!

That's called classic grass track bullshit. No doubt they're great engines, but not that great.

Interesting the engine is heard slowing down at 1m21s and yet the throttle is still full open?

9600 rpm must be mad in the car. There must be something inside your head saying this can't last for long...

I admit, I've spend too much money on my class 4 engine, it' s not got 140bhp though, and it did with the british and national championships in the same year, not with me driving though :(

Jimster, what do they put out, class 4 engines?

I can believe that the 140 is probably bullshit to be honest, but they must not be far off??

Sorry to take this a bit O/T, but are there many in class 4 running EFI on minis? Cant say I have seen any before
