I'm not sure what the comments about working hard or not, at school add to the debate but I do appreciate you'll never take the advantage of money out of motorsport, or many other sports. For example our cycling is doing well at the olympics, in part, due to the level of funding they've had in recent years.
My issue is, as stated above in the thread, if you market a class as your "budget" class, you should to keep cost under control.
Imagine what a good class it'd be (I'm not saying it isn't good now) if you could buy a new engine for £400 and know your engine was as competitive as anyone else's. If at your club meet, someone's performance seemed ife, their engine was swapped with a spare control engine and the original sent of to be checked and re-equalised, if that was required. Equally if you felt yours was below par, again, you request/hire a control engine for the race and yours goes for a check/service/re-seal.
Then every twelve months you pop your engine back, it's serviced, checked and re-sealed. Basically your only engine cost becomes the annual service, and seal.
Existing engines could be serviced, checked and sealed, so your not obseleting existing kit, so someone can buy a second hand package, to get them going, if the engines are not sealed, or the seal is out of date, a reasonable priced service, gets the engine checked for legality, serviced equalised and sealed.
I'm not going to get into the debate on clutches but yes maybe have 1 specified clutch!
What I'm suggesting is sort of half Easykart half 200 extreme and would make Honda cadet a true budget class
