Hey Jason,

After writing I went and check on Amazon for the Honda and nothing, oh well.... the battery power supply with the solar charger sounds very good, but if that gets done in south america it will last just a few days, somebody will quickly steal it, that is our reality, jejejejeje, maybe not all countries, in Venezuela it will last until the last car leaves the field!!. Sad but true.

On the wet sump, I think a main reason is because wet sumps can only be in one position, unless you use a more complex lubrication system like the one used in full scale aerobatic airplanes or engines modified to operate in any attitude, usually they are the dry sump type, just like the RC engines but with a external oil tank etc.

In Venezuela the LPG has been used for years, still cheaper than gasoline, where you can fill a car tank with $0.03 cents, but it does not have the same power, of course our city has a lot and I mean a lot mountains and the terrain is not flat in about 60% of the city, that sure has to do with the power, the most important reason for LPG besides cost is the exhaust gas is water vapor, and that is very cool.

Regards

Alejandro
