When pressed on whether he foresees the engine becoming competitive enough to use in races, Jacque answered, `Top end power is very good, and we are working on the speed. Corner exit speed needs to be good, quicker than the `big bang´, and at the moment that is quite critical, so we will try to work on the electronics. Every time we have a testing opportunity we try to understand how we can work with this type of engine.´
Meanwhile, Jacque´s test team crew chief Tom Jojic gave his viewpoint on the `screamer´ development, commenting, `There is potential there and Kawasaki are still trying to see if it is something that they could use. There are positives and negatives and we just keep trying new things. It is hard to say if we will see it in the near future, we will just stick to the test plan and see what we find.´
