Robby Galletta also mentioned "nitro and other good stuff" or words to that effect. I looked at a few of his YouTiube clips, so the reference to nitro might not have been in the first one that Vannik flagged up
I will be there

Hey frank
Are you frank schäfer from team 39 lucky Losers? Rider in liedolsheim and porsche mechanik/ engineer...? 😀
Having colleague peter k. from diefenbach?
You will remember my face, when we meet again
But maybe lets talk bevore the race to exchange ideas while drinking a 🍻

Thanks. Will dismantle it over winter and do exact measurements. Will also try to fit the old head back and do testing again.
I got open tip egt sensors you suggested, but my dyno has no option to plug them. I must get some kind of data logger. May I ask what sampling rate you use for your EGT?
For now I have only stack EGT gauge with closed tip, do you think I can change only probe on this gauge?
And I was reading somewhere, that sensors need to be correctly plugged/soldered to measure correctly but I can't find info anymore, I think I got it somewhere on egt page.
We tested our 26 & 35 cc race engines with a Performance Trends data logger and their dyno software. Today their data logger is more compact and has a weather station. https://www.performancetrends.com/dtm-dyno.htm Below is an article on our dyno. A more modern version has been built by Mark Anderson to continue testing our small race engines and pipes.

For a first sketch of a super two stroke cylinder one can do worse than scaling a RSA.
54 horsepower from 125ccm and had cost a zillion to devellop.
54 has not been bettered in the meantime.
If we go for a 250ccm cylinder by multiplying all lengths dimensions by cuberoot of 2 (1.26) the blowdown-timearea becomes 1.59 times bigger and therefore max power can be tuned to 86 horsepower with clever people and money enough..
A 50 cubic cylinder as clever as RSA with tuned exhaust can by the same method be calculated to have a max power potential of 29 horsepower and a 26ccm ca 19 horsepower
Peljhan , the Stack is way too slow , hasnt got max recall , and the enclosed tip type probe will never keep up with a racing 2Ts temp delta.
My software samples the egt up to 100X / sec and needs minimal smoothing , but I tried 10X and the result was all but identical.
Plus the Stinger exposed tip probe is real fast and importantly can be located on the header centerline.
You need the speed , and more importantly , having a graphed output , showing when a leaner jet change does not achieve a consistent temp rise - this shows you instantly deto is starting
due to rising free radical formation under the ring is robbing heat energy , and gives you a direct indication of best power egt level.
I also have 0-5V deto level being logged , but as the egt stops me from being dumb and getting into enough deto to hurt a piston , its now pretty much redundant information.
Except for seeing when say a pipe or head modification reduces the background deto level , that subsequently can give more leeway to lean on an engine to extract more performance.
This is what I like about toroidal chambers.
There is also a Lambda if I want , but I found that although it accurately shows what the oxygen level is in the exhaust gas , this metrics scaling doesn't change significantly enough as you
hone in real close to your best tune.
Ive got a thing thats unique and new.To prove it I'll have the last laugh on you.Cause instead of one head I got two.And you know two heads are better than one.

Wos , the unleaded FIM GP fuel brought into being in 1998 was nominally 100 octane , but was so dangerous to handle gloves and a respirator had to be used to fill the tanks.
Teams also refrigerated it prior to use.
Elf did a ton of research on the mix , ending up with what was called MITS 32 that would literally melt your nose.
So much for the virtue signaling clean green bullshit.
