We can dream, I suppose. Cars are still too expensive.....and probably still the biggest factor in keeping more Manufacturers away.
Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

Yes, when we see what FIA landed on in the end, they will be as expensive as todays WRCars are in a few years.
Beginning to like the McRae idea of S2500 formula more and more, even if it is the opposite direction than the new small turbo engines that modern cars have.
S2500 RWD would be very entertaining !

By the way, I make nice pistons and rods for high output B21/B23/B234---about 450 grams lighter than original per piston and rod combo...John Vanlandingham

I've been thinking of about this, and as a follower of Sportscar racing, why not follow their example; what about petrol, diesel and hybrids?
Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???
