As I said, it depends on where you are and at what events. 'Dahn sarf' things are a bit backward and it appears people still use them. Up in gods country we by and large did away with them back in the 1990s.

Quite!

I'm sure the pigs didn't mind though.

No disparaging remarks about sheep being very accommodating either, how disappointing.

Of course that never stops the VSCC Ruperts spill great slicks of oil all over the track on a Torrey Canyon scale.

what have I started.....

you guys.

The reason I asked was that I raced bikes for many years and quite like 2-strokes. I have seen some autocross cars in the US that use 500 and 600 2-strokes with CVT transmissions out of snowmobiles and they look a right laugh. The most recent 600cc snowmobile engines are direct injection 2-strokes that make 120/130hp as stock units.....could be a very handy lightweight and reliable package......
