Since he bought another race car in 2018 liarboy Baker has insisted the
Honda engine that came with it was not an advantage on the track. Here
is what he stated at the time, see the 3rd entry in the conversation:
https://groups.google.com/g/comp.sys.mac.advocacy/c/rWCHEEjs1as/m/ ecytpx1dBgAJ
"I've known I wanted a Honda-engined
Formula F since I started having to keep a Kent in tune. For a club
racer, the convenience of an engine with electronic ignition (no
ignition timing to adjust), electronic fuel injection (no carburetor
jetting to change with changing conditions) and an alternator to keep
the battery charged (no need to charge the battery like the total loss Kent-engined cars) is worth a lot. Not to mention that an engine running
with a restrictor and therefore operating at less than the stresses it
was designed for."
So he states that the Honda, with its restrictor plate and modern fuel injected and engine control unit that tunes the engine all by itself is
not an advantage?
How many drivers have the resources or skills to tune a Ford Kent
engine's timing and carb jets for every race to bring out its full power potential? Also, over the long term Alan admits that the Kent is
stressed by having to produce more power than it was designed for. How
does that affect power over a season of racing? Can't be good.
Anyway, despite the new car with what Alan admits is a better engine
that he says he wanted has over the last few years almost entirely
dropped out of Formula F racing at his home track. Last year he showed
up only for the 4th race, had a bit of an accident, and never returned.
Now we come to the 2015 season that starts next month. Will liarboy show
up or not? You too can find out at https://www.sccbc.net/racers/results/
I'll certainly be tuning in come April 26! Join me and watch the mayhem.

Lying ass:
I never once said there weren't advantages to choosing a Honda over a
Kent. In fact, I explained all of that to you when you didn't
understand it.
What YOU claimed was that the Honda was FASTER ON THE TRACK, and that
part is what is bullshit.
Do you need me to go through all the quotes...
...again?
It's faster on the track because the Kents are not always in top tune
while the Honda takes almost no maintenance. That is implied by what you said. You bought it hoping to win more races. Admit that please.

Your claim was that it was faster like-for-like, Liarboy.
As I said: do you want me to show you the quotes?
No need to show the quotes. Admit it Alan, a Kent engine requires
significant investment in time and money to compete and win races. You
stated that Doug won so much because he had the resources to employ an excellent shop to tune his car. And you were very close to him in a lot
of races without that expense, and even on marginal tires at times. But
how many of the other SCCBC FF crowd are able to maintain their Kent
engines at Doug's level? The Kent on-track speeds are theoretically as
good as a Honda, but only if the Kent is in top form.
There are reasons why there are so few Kents at the Runoffs. The Kent is
a better engine. Oh, I learned that from you!
Speaking of SCCBC, I just looked at the recent meeting minutes.
Proposing a building new track 3 hours away? Raising entry fees 30% was proposed just to breakven? Driver training entries so low that you may
want to add practice laps to the schedule? Concerns about 2024 drop in
race entries? Hmmm. Trouble in paradise?

Just interested in seeing how many lies and deflections I can get out of
you tell.
