animal engine differences

[jdc3]

I ran the SR Animal at the fall nationals.  As the results wont tell the whole story (broke chain) the car was competitive with the others.  Never ran at that track before or with this motor and was on 2nd place bumper.  We were 355# at the scale in a 295# class.  I felt that we were at less of a disadvantage being over weight in that class than I did in the Honda classes.  The motor made me think I had a race car instead of a "go cart."
