i guess this is because the japanese like to try something different all the time. most of us would just want the fastest engine we can afford (can we handle the power ? we will worry about it later).

i think maybe with the right gearings, a 4 stroke car can do good on a small, technical track. that would be a competition of skills, not guts. but without actully drove one, it is hard to tell.
