Forum Talk: Rotax Engine Recall and Race Engine Choices
A few interesting threads have developed in the karting forums. One is a thread about an engine recall from Rotax for Junior max engines - some cylinders have been found to be a bit outside of the standard tolerances and Rotax is offering a free replacement to owners of a cylinder that is out-of-spec. Another discussion which started on Yamaha-KT engine pricing has developed into a discussion about different engines being used in competition - is it more important to go fast or to have close racing - can you have both? Check that thread here.
