What this sheet is for
Know how much life is left in a competition engine before it lets go, and hold a rebuild history that follows the engine rather than the car.
Who it is for
Owners of race, rally, kart and hillclimb engines that are rebuilt on hours or distance, and the builders who look after them.
How to use it
- Identify the engine and write in the life your builder has given it.
- After each session, log the hours or distance run and the running total since the last rebuild.
- Tick whether the oil and filter were changed, and note anything the gauges or your ears reported.
- When it is rebuilt, record the hours at the strip, the work done, the parts and the builder.
- Start a new sheet for each engine — a spare has its own life.
What is on the sheet
One page, top to bottom:
Printed under the title: Running hours or mileage on a competition engine, session by session, against the life your engine builder has given it — and a record of each rebuild, what was done and what it cost.
Your builder's life, tracked here. The rebuild interval is your engine builder's figure, not ours: write it in the box and count towards it. Hours are what the engine has done, not what the car has done, so a spare engine has its own sheet.
Write-on lines: Engine no. / identity · Spec / builder · Life set by builder (hrs or km) · Hours at last rebuild
Rebuild history
Table, 3 rows: Date · Hours at strip · Work done · Parts replaced · Cost · Builder
Running record — one row per session or event
Table, 7 rows: Date · Event / session · This run · Since rebuild · Oil / filter · Notes
Questions
Why is there no rebuild interval printed?
Because it depends on the engine, its state of tune, the fuel and how hard it is used, and only your engine builder can set it. Write their figure in the box and count towards it.
Hours or kilometres?
Whichever your builder quotes the life in. Karts and hillclimb engines are usually counted in hours; rally and endurance engines are often counted in distance. Use one unit and say which at the top.
