sounds awesome! they do that stuff in brazil, to keep the playing field level and cheap. if you think about it it's not even that expensive comparably if you are buying a couple really good rotax'. that is if the $350 price is for the weekend, and not per day. $1000 for a weekend lease is way too much, though.

top level drivers? More like top level pocket books. In theory it sounds great for some, a small group at best, just does not appeal to me.

For anyone who has raced at the top National Level.. That is actually mighty affordable... Sound like a great deal.. That is probably cheaper than Rotax if you did the whole series. You are not paying to freshen the motor...It is included..

| This may be good for somebody who want to race in additional classes and have money to do so. I can't imagine a racer with chassis only and no engine. |

Exactly. Another class for the big tent guys.

Racing at any national level is expensive whether you are a father and son/daughter team or a big tent team. Just to be under a tent is a min. of $500 per weekend, unless something has changed since we were racing. In addition, in my opinion you would be rebuilding the top ends on the motors after every other race weekend. At $250 per motor, it gets expensive. If the rental is $350 per motor/per weekend, then this is a good deal. Even to rent a top level Rotax, you are looking at these numbers.
