e85 my friend...and there is more room for more power but we wanted conserative power (others like to call that safe, lol), no need to push it right now...its a new setup and one that will be finessed over time and one that will hopefully raise questions as to why a car with less power than the others can potentially do well/better.
only time will tell but its an animal for sure as is!

their is plenty more, the 500whp is dialed back to that 
I was amazed at how much a 2.5L can still make...its nutty but 500whp is all we needed for now and was again safe for "testing" conditions

nothing to crazy, just good attention to detail...nothing was left out and everything was taken into consideration(s).
could we of gone a with a stroked motor...you bet! Maybe we should of as the rest of our competition has it but the bottom line is we are interested in the average consumer being able to build an all around great track beast. That was our goal and one that we stuck by day in and day out. NOT everyone can afford to dump $25k just on a motor, so we dug deep and took a big risk to make this setup be an all around "competitive" and effective one.

ha ha never will happen...completely different classes and built cars, lol
UNLESS someone dumps a wad of cash on me to make things happen, umm yeah thought over
and food for thought, GST's car is easily 7-10 secs faster than our car...thats might as well be a mile
