It’s designed specifically for up-and-coming racers competing in UIM Formula 4 class competition, and has been expertly tuned to run at a wide-open throttle limit of 6000-6400 rpm. Built on a durable, proven four-stroke powerhead, the 60 APX can run out front all season long, while requiring minimal maintenance off the water. So racers can spend more hours where they belong: on the track, honing their skills.
