Can you imagine a V8 , V10 or a V12 , 2 stroke motor ripping at 16,000 rpm? Better than music!

2 stroke diesels were roaming the hiways of America not too long ago. Emissions killed them too I suppose.

The old green leakers. Not much better sounding than a 12v71t

Supposedly a 2 stroke diesel is much more efficient.

I saw an article that said motoGP is indeed seriously considering a return to 500cc 2 strokes. I'll have to see if I can find it in my browser history.

Bought an 809cc skidoo Mach z triple last week more for the sound than anything. They are dinasours compared to the new DI/PFI two strokes but none the less it’s a blast on flat stuff. I am fairly certain skidoo earns Credits with the etec 2 stroke engine in sleds like my 850 twin. Most oe spend credits to produce them.

I don't know if theres any real meat and potatoes to it or if it's just conjecture and using the F1 news to write an article when you have a deadline coming but none the less here it is.

The only thing I can say about this, is that it has to have an end use , at least to a point.

Unless we go to 2 stroke engines in cars and bikes again, R&D dollars aren't going to be spent just for racing .
