      NASCAR vs. F1

      I wasn't sure where this should be posted, but considering the technical nature of the article, I thought I would try in here. Mods, move if you feel necessary.

      Good info .!
      The Nascar Cup engines have really come a long way..
      The Nascar V-8 technology filters into our hobby.
      I love it !!

      good read !!!

      I wish NASCAR would let the teams run FI, then I think after a few years of trickle down effect ... there would be A LOT more options in stand alone FI controllers (real time tune able) !

      Oh well I have carburetors on both my rides

      Pretty good read. The piston speeds are WILD in a cup engine. Very cool. Some broad assumptions in the con rod section but interesting non the less. Thanks
