Austin Retting LS series dirt late model engine.

[Jking24]

Worth mentioning is the previously listed numbers by Baldwin and the engine slated to go to Australia were made on methanol

[Kromulous]

That would tend to explain them numbers, that still a stout piece thou.

I was at a big Mod show the other day, and i swear someone was running some % of Nitro-methane, love the smell of that stuff from my Karting days.

Anyway, 10% to 20% of nitro in one of these on methanol engines would perk up a Dyno report too.

I would totally agree i don't know the exact composition but i know vp m5 is worth a few extra aswell

Krom just for conversations sake where is some of the newest ry45 stuff claimed to be at hp/tq/rpm. Obviously the stuff runs but since we're comparing numbers

[Kromulous]

Last i heard was 905 / 750 its probably 930 by now, ish.

I believe Mullins Racing Engines and Scott Bailey Racing Engines both built an LS engine to be used this year. I think Babb and Stovall were the drivers that were to utilize them. Didn't hear any dyno numbers but I think these numbers Baldwin is showing are a little hard to believe. The on track results were prove everything. Numbers don't mean anything if it's not winning.

[let-r-eat]

Racing those dynos again. Happens all the time. Total BS. At this pace, 8 round holes will make 2000 in another few years.

Plans on running the Lucas oil events this weekend

[Kromulous]

Be interesting to see it perform.

if theyre gonna make a legit foot print then they need to have a proven driver running one

I'm always more impressed by a car when a guy who isn't fast gets one and improves greatly.

[riddle28]

i agree but ive never heard of rettig winning anywhere

[Jking24]

Their is one in pa that's won a few races on a big half mile but they were only weekly shows. i do not know how well it runs against regional and professional touring cars

[Kromulous]

Austin Rettig, is from like Missouri or some such?

Wasnt he the guy in the 94 car, that put on a pretty good show at the Show me 100 race last year?

Yes, but I believe your thinking the topless a few years ago or the cotton picking at magnolia (don't recall the show me but you could be correct)
