I may be out of touch. Seems less and less talk bout these. Is the 350 trial finished?, is there any results from the trial? are cars still running them?
Things gone real quiet

I know they good. Was thinking a trial is a trial and at sum stage the powers to be will suggest if they will make it a legitimate option. I am picking the mega engine brigade will poo poo the idea. SNZ need to make a call on the trial that was held.
Seems good to me. Performance on a Par for many thousands less.
2 year option to fase out the mega engine?

Pretty sure they are a legal motor now, remember something about the trail ended couple of seasons ago.. Just not allowed to enter NZs.. Thought the paperwork said you were able to enter island titles and gp tho with them.

Post in there from June 2015 saying the trial had been extended for another 4 years. |

the chevy motors are slowish compared to the hot motors with all the money spent on them, they dont rev out or scream..BUT...I reckon we should can superstocks and stockcars and make one division with the chevy crate motor the only one allowed...no further fettling with the motor allowed!! right...fire away...

I believe we should do the F1 class as in Britain. ( same rules and specifications). And as mobilechicane suggests with the standard stocks.

Things gone real quiet The trial is ongoing, not a permanent option just yet, need to contact SNZ, present you're case to them, and they will advise length of time permitted. BL |

Thanx Brendan. It does seem a rather long trial.
I agree there will be a whole heap of politicalness involved.

I don't see why the trial needs to continue, it has already been proven that these engines aren't going to smoke the rest of the field and in fact are slightly less powerful.
Come on SNZ its time to approve these...

The trial is ongoing, not a permanent option just yet, about 2.5 years before anything develops into permanent, more trial time, or whatever. SNZ are collating data. It does appear the positives outweigh the negatives. Vested interests and politics are another matter as you would expect... BL Sounds like you have joined Dotcom,s political party  and found a file from his press secretaries office , copyright infringement notice ..could see you paddling your Waka down the Mighty Whanganui heading for Jerusalaum |

Its years ago now, the trial came and went. But if the trial motor isnt legal, Why not? it showed no advantage over other motors , in fact they are mid pack runners at best from what i saw on the couple of occasions I witnessed them. Why not a 602 making 378 or a 604 making 404 HP? They seem to be an inoffensive power plant. They only rev to 5800 and are 9.78 comp. There isnt a good driver in a fast car who needs to be worried about being dragged off down the straight by one of them.
I removed the bit about hp rules..
