Meanwhile I will be searching for a used Traqmate. If anyone knows somebody looking to get rid of their Traqmate, let me know.

Entry fees come first and foremost any leftover money is what I am discussing here. I already have a GoPro in the car, but that is a great suggestion for spending the ~$300. I guess the real dilemma I face, which I know has been discussed at great lengths earlier, is whether to continue racing knowing that the car isn't prepared to win and just rack up seat time or save up for a while and buy a motor. At Sebring I was around 1 second off the pace set by Jamie Tucker and Cory Collum. How much improvement would I see from a motor that is making ~10-20 more hp? (Obviously this is track dependent)


I doubt you're down 10-20hp but 5hp at Sebring Short in a race situation would only be about .5-.8 seconds. The key to Sebring Short is braking late, the track record is a 1:20.1 set by a 47mm plate 121 hp 1.8L (which works about to about 5hp down)
