4 stroke car engine??
 
Hey Dave, Do you think YS would have any interest in manufacturing a .25-.30 size competition four stroke car engine? I'm curious, I have been doing alot of development with the OS FS-26S-C and I have seen some huge HP gains with little effort. In fact, I think I will be able to top a novarossi .12 soon. I think that if a company with the resources of YS were serious, they could produce a four stroke that would smoke the two strokes. I have extensive performance four stroke background (6 years factory MX Race mechanic for YAMAHA factory four stroke) and would be willing to help in the design. If we had another manufacturer (other than OS) marketing a car version four stroke, we could possibly get ROAR to allow four stroke engines to compete at the national level. What do you think?

p.s. I would be happy to verify your HP claims on one of my dynos, if you are curious to their accuracy!

As we've said here before, the YS factory in Japan is very small and unlike many of their counterparts, have no desire to expand. They cannot meet the demands of world market now, let alone taking on more product.

We appreciate the thought, however.
