Looked like everybody that was anybody had Ostrich(sp?) racing engines? Is something new? Monkey see monkey do or what?

Both feature winners, and quite a few big 0 stickers on other cars.

I'd be willing to bet Kelly from Westphal will be along with a reply. He frequents these boards often. I would be interested to hear what he has to say on this subject. Kelly and guys have had a handle on the 360 engines for a few years now.

Brian Browns 410 car i believe is not an Ostrich i believe it is Kistler, He runs a ostrich in his 360 car. I could be wrong but just going of last years information.

What motor was in that 81 car? He was 1.6 tenths quicker than anyone else. Time trials is all about pure horsepower and they have it.

Well I know it doesnt mean anything, but the trackside announcer asked Brian what he thought of the Ostrich horsepower when doing the winner's circle interview....but I know that doesnt go very far.

Brownie must have changed 410 builders over the winter. I know last year both of their 410 motors were Kistler. 360 has been an Ostrich for a few years.
