New engines

[Ben Mazur]

The Chaudron supersport team is getting a couple of new engines which are being referred to as "Mercury 500s."

What do you make of this quote Dragon?

"We will now finally be able to run at top speed and will get another few miles an hour out of the boat. I truly believe we could have won the championship last year if we'd had these engines, so this season we're going all out for the title."

Personally, I don't see how it makes any difference. They had 496 HO engines last year, so they get 8hp more, but add 36kg more weight. They were penalised last year for adding custom race headers to get more power and then had to add more weight, so maybe they don't need those with the 500s.
