What about the 4-6 L supercharged engines...doesn't Mercedes have one with a "Kompressor" that they put in one of their roadsters?
The Japanese makers also have some engines with blowers on them....but I don't know if they are V-8s...
This category could be the saving grace for both Pilbeam and Debora....
Horsepower will make up for lots of sins when it comes to aero design...
Or better yet....
you could make this a "Privateer" category like they will do with the proposed 750 Kg. class....an obsolete chassis could come cheap...then buy a Vette engine that some Grand Am team is getting rid of once the Series folds next year and voila...you're runnin' like a rocket down the Mulsanne for a lot less $$$ than someone who is paying top $$$ for a state-of-the-art chassis and high tech engine package....
Kinda Like "Gomer goes to Le Mans"
