Well most race events are restricted to a particular engine size along with further restrictions for modifications etc etc. Usually to keep budgets down down or things competitive.

\would imagine this is restricted to 1000cc, keeping cars silhouette and an engine that would come with this model.... and rather large book of further restrictions.

Looks great, actually mental! Ever had it on a dyno?

Last I heard Chris is perusing other things at the moment. John Hardman does however still build engines and does many for the Super1000 series. They are reputed to pushing 130bhp out of the CG10DE engines, which on a bhp/litre level is where we are aiming with the CG13, (gives a little hint into 2012/13). I approached him to build an engine for us earlier in the year however for a number of reasons, which I will not discuss openly, it wasn't on the cards.
