I would be curious to know which racing cars used 2 stroke engines like the Elto 4-60. That news is a big surprise.
Here we go: a midget racer powered by an Evinrude 460!

I would love to see 152VO develop into classes for small inboard hydros and those lovely pre and post War 1.5 Litre engined racers
Specific racing classes for r/c controlled wooden inboard hydros already exist! For sure in the US and as far as I know also in GB. Those models are scaled to 1/8 and 1/10.
To be true: a racing class for the smallest inboard hydros (class Z, usually powered by Crosley engines) could also attract me... of course in the scale 1/5,2. Would be about the same size as our outboard boats. But, as Andreas already mentioned: not within 152VO. Not only for the reason that 152VO is restricted (and addicted) to outboard racing, but also because 152VO is so time-consuming that I can't imagine to establish and organize another racing class. Maybe some day...
