    Speaking as an engineer, the RT41 was the easiest car of the three to make a driver both fast and happy. Next is the 014 and last is the 016.

    Steve Knapp has worked on a Mazda conversion for the 014 that should reduce the engine costs and boost performance. This would be my recommendation. The 014 is the best of the Swifts.

    The Toyota engine is getting expensive to operate.

    I was not impressed with the 016 when I worked with it.

    However Steve, the 016 has a significant power to weight advantage at this point.
