Engines - long

[Jason]

Actually Dave, I am not a YS sponsored pilot. I am a OS/Hacker sponsored
pilot though <G>.

And while not positive, I believe every pilot in the 2004 NATs F3A finals
was sponsored by YS - and YS by far sponsors the most pilots.  I'd be
willing to bet that if OS, Webra, or Hacker provided an equal level of
sponsorship the number of sponsored YS pilots would diminish substantially.
In view of the engine problems I had at the 2004 NATs, I was asked by 2 of
the finalists why I was running the 2C and not a 4C.  I replied less weight,
less vibration, more power, more reliability - and while neither disagreed,
both felt having a YS sponsorship made the difference (as they both believed
I would be able to obtain YS sponsorship).
