I've said this before & I'll say it again - until all the numb skulls have understood it, or till I discover otherwise.

I think you'll find engines only play a minor role.
Racing has more to do with grip!!!
Tyres & areo package play a bigger role than engine brand, size or shape - PERIOD!

Perhaps you may be quoting others without fully understanding.
Ever thought that perhaps the only reason they downsize to a sb is because they find that the power (read torque) of the bb overwhelms the limited GRIP levels of the tyres & aero package of a cobra?
...and it is this balance they are referring to & not weight?

I suspect sb are often more popular with races for this reason, and bc they are cheaper, with lighter internals which theoretically allow them to spin up quicker & higher rpm.

Ultimately, it's rare your engine will determine 1st, 2nd or last unless it lets go on you.

Save your sb v bb arguements for fools who are ignorant, cos noone with sense is listening.

Each to their own on engine choice.
Over & out!!
