Perhaps I sold Austen short a little here, but I've heard it said far too often that "it's a race car, so it runs rich", etc...and his earlier post seemed to heading in that direction. Of course, more fuel does not automatically equal more power...there is an optimum AFR in a given situation, and richer/leaner will give you less. Apologies if I misinterpretted your point, Austen, but as a one-liner I think it was worth checking.

James if you want to live in the 20th century and in ignorance of 21st century technology so be it, but please don’t insinuate my comments are pedantic because you don’t understand them or choose to ignore them because you are incorrect. The rest of your post is pedantic so I won't comment. This is my last off topic post so if you want to continue debating this subject start a new thread

Cheers
