Racing Airplane Questions.....

I've never heard of the first airplane you mentioned, but then again I
don't really follow the racing scene. Big engines seem like the brute
force way of solving the problem. I like the idea of small horsepower
going fast like the Rotax 914 (turbo normalized) powered aircraft that
cruise over 200MPH. That motor seems to have solved one of the
paradoxes of general aviation- low stall speed and high cruise speed.
The answer was to be able to produce power up high in the thin air and
go fast, fly down into the thick stuff to go slow and land.

I've seen the Nemesis web site before, maybe its the older model, not
sure. Didn't see anything new. Just big motor on small glass plane.
I guess I'm moe excited about efficiency then HP. No offense to
people who like (and can afford) the big engines.
