So, I've been thinking about this for a while, and it seems that going with a formula car is what I should be doing. I'm tired of trying to track a street car and all the problems that comes with (overheating, 2 alignments, worrying about the paint/finish, etc. etc.). I figure, why try to track a street car, when you can just trailer a formula car, which theoretically costs less, and runs much, MUCH faster.
So, what I'm looking to do is to get a decent amount of performance for a relatively low price... I'm not really interested in actual competition yet, so staying "legal" is not a concern. I've been leaning towards the F1000 concept, and I've heard really good things about the Stohr, is there some sort of FAQ I can visit that will get me started in this area? Another thought, since I don't plan on competition, has anyone ever tried running a 2-stroke motor in an F1000 car? I figure I could get a lot more power at essentially the same (or lower?) cost, and do away with the entire oiling system (and the various issues that come with it under high G-loads) to boot. Is there something wrong with this idea? It looks like a bone stock no frills 2-stroke 1000cc snowmobile motor can generate 275 HP... why not have a little fun and try to rework it to run model airplane fuel (10-15% nitromethanol)?
