[F500] 2 strokes anyone?

[fmod]

I was at a Ski-Doo Dealership the other day (also Honda, etc) and they had 
the new watercraft on display.  Not sure of the size, but it was a three 
cylinder supercharged engine.  They do not sell snowmobiles, but he was told 
that in 2006 they are doing the same with the sleds!

Also, watch a motorcross and they are all working on 4-stroke bikes.  I 
think in 125cc 2-stroke class they run 250cc 4-stroke bikes.

Only time will tell, but we are having such a noise problem here in New 
England at the old Fort Deven's airfield and NHIS(Solo2), that if I am in 
this long enough a bigger 4-stroke wouldn't hurt.  I have almost three feet 
of muffler hanging off the back of my car.  I will ask the people in charge 
this Sunday if they are going to relax the sound level for the National Tour 
we are having this year.  If any of you guys are coming to the Tour at 
Deven's, if  your car doesn't meet sound level you don't get anymore runs 
unless you can fix it period!

If someone can tell me were I can post a picture of the muffler I will post 
it.   Small Fortune Racing put in about thiry hours (didn't charge me for 
the time) and it is the best they and I came up with.  It works, but without 
much of a margin for error!
