Prince of the clones

Well, I have raced the C200 several times now and the fun continues. I can get into the high 56's occasionally and the C200 is a midpack runner in a field of B&S Animals. The only modification lately has been to shave more off the ignition key to advance the ignition. I am about halfway across t...

The only rules that are vaguely applicable are the Honda ASN rules. I have built my motor to mimick these rules. There are some variations between the clone and the honda such as the valve caps and larger carburator on the clone but for now neither Dan or I have made any real modifications. The Edmo...

No, but I am keeping an eye on it. I think the modified clones are pulling more rpm than I am though. They are using the GX390 carb and a different cam among other things. I am basically stock.

First of all the stock valve springs are pretty weak and the valves float at about 5500rpm. Best laptimes so far going CW south chicane was a 1.02.52....

Response to the clone project has been quite positive with many interested parties and a few taking on their own projects. Here are a few more detailed pics of my throttle assembly and top plate.

It has been awhile since I was new but thought it might be helpful for the new racers to have it all layed out.
