Heard a few cats(we'll leave names out lol) are running water pump impellers that are shaved down to nothing to reduce drag on motor thus freeing up HP..... and running an external water pump.....


Neat idea....:D

While we're at it we might as well add dry sumps too. Check it out:

The road race guys have been using them for years.

I know, but I thought I would throw it out there.

install a switch on charging circuit, turn off while racing to reduce drag from alt. turn on during cautions,warmups and back and forth to the pits..
