an interesting question: Is it legal to power a supercharger with a "pony" motor, thus not robbing the drivetrain of the power required to drive said supercharger? Since this "pony" motor does not mechanically couple to the drivetrain, is it not considered as engine displacement?
This is analogous to the chapparral "sucker car" using a snowmobile engine to suck the car to the road. It was initially legal, then declared illegal as it beat everything on the track.
There would be a significant weight penalty, but is it legal?
