Engine Limitation (SAE SUPRA)
• The engine(s) used to power the car must be a piston engine(s) using a
four-stroke primary heat cycle with a displacement not exceeding 610
cc per cycle. Hybrid powertrains, such as those using electric motors
running off stored energy, are prohibited.
• The engine can be modified within the restrictions of the rules.
• If more than one engine is used, the total displacement cannot exceed
610 cc and the air for all engines must pass through a single air intake
restrictor.
