New Project
mookaloid - 10/10/08 at 02:22 PM

I think I might have just secured a new project.

An early MK Indy part built project.

No engine just a rolling chassis and bodywork.

thinking of just putting a bike engine in it (yes I know!) and just making it into a non road legal track day car.

I might be asking some stupid BEC questions now.

It doesn't make me a total convert to BEC's but I think this will be the cheapest way forward for a track car.



Cheers

Hopefully after 1 Dec when I'll have loads of time on my hands I'll be able give you a hand.

Have got a trailer sorted for the 1st but if I damage it I think I'm a dead man! It's brand spanking new! Oh the pressure!!

Hi Chris,

Not this one - it wouldn't be competitive.

it's just a stop gap for something cheap to do until I can release some real money and time to build a proper hill climber.

I'd very much like to see yours go up the hill though. I'd be happy to assist with regs. etc if you want.

Cheers
