Ignorance is bliss!!!! It would cost you less, and you would spend less time working on the car. Interested now? "If" the class desided to allow 600 bike motors, I would sugest 1st that they be limited to the 600cc variety, and that they remain stock. OK then, you can buy on ebay, all day long, used low mileage 600cc bike motors for around $1000, or maybe less, with all electrical. There's no tuning, no jets, 16,000 mile valve ajustments. You spin off the oil filter, and change the oil every weekend, that's it. The most setup would be a gear change. I was thinking about the expense of converting a car, wasn't the rage some years ago to add a 4 link to these cars that weren't otherwise equipt? The conversion, would be much more than that. Ditto here too, I don't want to marry a car!!! CR

I just started in this f500 thing, so maybe my view doesn't count for much, but it echoes D. Gill's view. While I like the sounds of many of the possibilities, ---as a race fan how could I not like the idea of more power and a gear box--- but cost in money and time are more than I can afford. Furthermore, I don't want to get mashed up in an on track incident; it takes too long to heal and I already have enough health problems. I don't want to win at all costs. I stick to Solo 2 mainly. At fifty years of age, there is no future in racing for me. I just like doing it and, win or lose (more accurately lose or lose 8-)) I have fun where I am. There has to be more old people like me that would get into this kind of racing.
