I got the changing the mix for added boost bit from motorcycles. Some
(amateur) racers I know cut down on the oil during time trials and
races to boost performance. I think it's only a couple of percent,
though. Could be yet another myth?


There must be something to it ... although probably dangerous for the health
of the engine.

Ever notice how a chain saw engine starts to have more throttle response and
revs higher just as it is running out of gas/oil?

Like the old racing truism. "It was running real good, right before
it blowed up."
There is horsepower and there is durability. Unfortunatly they sit on
oppisite ends of the teeter-totter. When one goes up the other goes
down.
