Was it somewhat competitive?

Hard to tell - by the time it came out, most of the top teams had left the 12 mod class as it was not run internationally anymore. It ran ok and there was nothing left in the class, that could touch it.
There is a titanium crankshaft available for that engine, which would have made it possible to get the tractor into the 9900 lbs and with a better ignition system it would have become really interesting - but since the writing was on the wall , the 9900 would go lighter, too he refused to spend that money and parked the tractor.
