The question is whether there won't be issue with the size of valves in the small engine or something else I didn't think about.
P.S. I'm no motoring engineer so I may be wrong. Maybe someone can correct me.
Take a closer look mate; in Rally4 case I’ve mentioned the weight regs change as the main doubt on 1.0 cars future speed. Probably, there’s no need to be an engineer to get that the Fiesta and the 208 paces are pretty leveled today, once the Fiesta can compensate its lower CC by having less 80kgs. Without that weight compensation and once they’ll use the same restrictor, is it hard to believe that the Fiesta can be outpaced?
