Yeah me too! Especially since it's hard to have a look at the engines these days. Love that stuff like Race Car Engineering and so. Would still love to know about the base engines being used. Could the EKS Audi have a 20VT engine based around the old Skoda WRC engines, manifold looks a bit like it.

Also would like to know more about those American Beetles which apparently use 1.6 engines as Andretti made a deal with Trollspeed (or was it Marklund?) about technology, which seems odd since no one uses a 1.6 VW engine.

Interesting too see that Hedstrom said the engine in his new Polo was quite a bit stronger than his old Jernberg Skoda, although using the same block, so either power has gone up or his old one was a bit tired (I guess both as tuners tend to put updates during an overhaul)...
