There have been a few hillclimb specials built in Australia in the past using two stroke outboard engines.

They could run with the leading cars (which admittedly were not as hard core as the british F1 engined machines).

Some pretty good configurations to those engines as well. With tuning they'd be getting right up there power wise as well.

Sounded pretty wild as well.

Don't have details I'm afraid (long time ago).
