I believe that you are referring to the Beare engine.

ARTICLE 5: ENGINE
5.1 Engine specification:
5.1.1 Only 4-stroke engines with reciprocating pistons are
permitted.

[rjsa]

Code: Select all

5.1.4 All engines must have 8 cylinders arranged in a 90º “V” configuration and the normal section of each cylinder must be circular. 
5.1.5 Engines must have two inlet and two exhaust valves per cylinder. 
Only reciprocating poppet valves are permitted. 
The sealing interface between the moving valve component and the stationary engine component must be circular. 

I think it fails these articles in fact. It still runs 4 stroke, but the feed/exhaust ressembles a two stroke mounted upside down.

There is room for this to be allowed in the new 2011 regs., IMO.
