guess the power
Discussion
Just wondering as you do. I take it from the figures on my in the day engine that I would not be able to race in "B" unless I some how knocked off some power. Not an issue would just run car in "A" but if it is over BHP to Weight limit for "B" what was the point in excluding original cars.
my original 5.2 made 396 bhp at the crank on austec's rollers, with the weight of the car and all the data from the data logger it was 324.5 bhp per tonne at the wheels, absolutely spot on for class B at the time, but after that year I was put in A as I think PTW figures were dropped to 300bhp pt atw, also anything above 5 litres was thrown in class A, so depending on your car weight you can ballast up or go in A, My new rover v8 Guglielmi's car is only 365 bhp at the crank as its not a 5.2 so might still need some ballast to go in B, I took it out at Rockingham and it was up with all the A cars when it ran ok so not sure it would be fair for me to run in B in it but technically I think it could,

Supposedly the Aussie NA RV8's can produce more than 400;
