There have been many test and tunning sessions done regarding engines with our 1/8 GT cars. Some people just don't have enough knowledge base yet to make the right decisions moving forward with the rest of the country regarding the growth of the class overall. I'll respect the rules from the event with a thought of hoping organizer to grow with the knowledge we have gathered from the past several years from rest of country.
And yes I truly believe your engine should be legal everywhere we race our beloved GT8 cars Tony!
