fox your right...I have an engine sponsor...and no we don't get them free...or as many as we want..as far as modding...we do test things from time to time not only for ourselves but for information to pass on the the public as well...
In Drake's case, modding his engine would include anything to make it more fuel-efficient, not so much to make it more powerful. One mod I know of would be to enlarge the crankcase's internal volume to allow more capacity. You also have to consider that all Drake has to do is call Novarossi and say, "Yeah, gimme a case of engines." And they're his, no questions asked. So he runs them lean as hell for only as long as they need to last in the main, then throws them away.
@TheFarFox You have no idea what your talking about. Drake runs his motor the way it came from the factory because Novarossi already modded it. its as efficient and powerful as it can be. all he does is use the right carb and race tune it. plus nobody runs it as lean as possible or else you run the risk of a "FLAME OUT" and Drake should know better. AND he doesnt get Cases of engines and throws it away as if it was free, he can only get as much as the company lets him which is not alot.
@TheFarFox Your info is wrong. No Pro driver can just call up a sponsor and say give me a case of anything for free. It's not like these companies are selling millions of units. LOL
Is this the 1.0 or 2.0
