Teams using turbocharged Buick V6 engines should be more competitive in 1992 because of a rule change announced by Championship Auto Racing Teams, the Indy-car sanctioning body. The CART board, all team owners, voted, 22-1, to allow the Buick engines an increase from 45 to 50 inches of manifold pressure, thereby creating more horsepower.

CART chairman Bill Stokkan said the rule has been adopted on a trial basis for one year with the hope that it will “promote increased competition in the series.”
