I cant seem to find any info on the specs of minisprint motors, this one pictured is running methanol but apart from that i have no idea.
Anyone have any idea what kind off power these make etc?

170hp or thereabouts

They normally have e13s that's what the top ones run

Ministocks have to be stock. I think with minisprints, it's anything goes so long as it's still N/A.
I've heard stories over in oz about guys pouring scary amounts of money into them.
