Well the whole DeltaWing design is pretty much devastated by this class anyway. Here we have small, light, efficient carts with long-lasting tires which will likely be lapping at speeds close to P2 .... give them a little more rubber and power, and they would be surpassing P2 (lighter and with better power/weight = better performance (someone mentioned the 3-liter Wolf CN nearly reaching P2 sopeeds with 2/3 the displacement.)

If the new P3 class can almost outperform the DWing (can easily outperform its current incarnation) then the DWing is not a better solution.

The whole DWing thing was supposed to be less power, less weight, less fuel used, less rubber burned, and equivalent performance. If LMP3 can do the sdame ... or Tucker's Frankenstein D-sports racer ...
