straight six verses v8
#1

Anything over a quarter mile oval and the sixes will not be competitive, all other engine mods being equal. The strong bottom end torque of a long stroke six and the improved weight distribution of a car with a setback six-powered powertrain will be an advantage on a short track of less than a quarter mile. But lengthen the straightaways and let the V8 begin to breath and rev and they will run down that inline before it enters turn 1.
I love inlines, but the reality is they cannot keep up on larger ovals.
