I have been racing 200’s for 2 years, cheep racing, first year did 105 hours & the only cost was oil. Start of this year sent them back to RPM as I thought they were loosing a bit of top-end £300 + vat for the lot. Used to spend £1600 a year on keeping 160’s competitive. The engines have 4 or 5 seals on so getting onto them is very difficult, all race meetings have buy-back option & the c-o-c has control engines which must be used if instructed by the c-o-c Engines are very even, very little passing down the straight, all done by set-up, ability & making the most of other drivers mistakes!? Good cadet 200 grid at Teesside, the kids love the extra power & really good to watch them. Note of warning – if you get 200’s make sure the exhaust is beefed up as the silencer has a habit of breaking off.
