RSR Escort dyno vid

RSR space frame, fibreglass body shell and bike engine derived v8. What's not to like, definitely on my lottery win list.

I drooled over this car at Brands at the kit car show.

This is a weapon. Radical SR8 engine.





Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!

A load more pics here

As for price, various posts from a while ago suggest a rolling chassis at just over £10k, iirc the engine in this one is close on £20k and the gearbox well north of £5k.

I guess you may be able to do a nice one with s2000 running gear for £20k if you were careful, so similar to a traditional bare metal restomod I guess.
