Here we go, the first of probably thousands of questions for all you knowlegeable people.

I'm building a locost, hopefully to race in the 2004 championship. The chassis is done, the engine stripped and about to be rebuilt. Money is tight so :

1. If I dont rebore the engine how significant will this be for race day? I'm not looking to win ( yet!!!) but would like to be able to compete with at least one back marker!!! I don't want to come last purely due to a lack of power, only my lack of driving skill!!!

2. Whilst everything is still in bits should I be looking to do anything else thats legal but not really mentioned in Rons book??

3. Any other advice much appreciated!!!

Cheers Pumpers.
