I am a Mac guy and in my opinion, the 820 does not belong in the Sportsman rear class.
The pro built 820's are taking over the class so the guys with a regular 100cc mac doesn't stand a chance. My engines can keep up but they need extensive mods.
Maybe an 820 without boost ports might be more fair rather than the fully modified Pro builds coming out.
I think it is unfair even with the 1" carb.
A famous drag racer once said that the only way to beat cubic inch is with cubic dollars and in this case he is right.
My 2 cents
I remember a few years ago at New Castle...I was running a pretty good Mac 90 in sportsman...was leading app 9 karts...this karts pulls up next to me on the long straight,,,slows down and wants to bump fists...and then just motors away,,,not driving anu better, ,,,,nothing but motor,,,oh my,,it was an 820
