I'm thinking a 1260 kit with a nice set of carbs. Keep it N/A. Should be enough power for me!

The tank/tail unit will be ali with a very minimal subframe, just enough to support the butt region. The monocoque design should give ample support to the rest of the tail. Unsure whether or not to house the battery in the tail or use some of the tank space to keep the weight central. With the build being more track focused, fuel capacity isn't as much of a priority.

Anyway, I had a bit of time this weekend to do abit more on tank/tail mock-up...
