Hi everyone, I've just been looking at the rules and regs for the 750mc and i'm not really clear on what is and isn't allowed. Can
you have alloy pulleys? Alternative fueling (high pressure pump etc), etc etc??? If anyone can help out on exactly what you are allowed it'd be
appreciated. Cheers,
J

Not sure what your regs say BUT i am sure you will find somwhere that it states if it doesn't say you can have it then you can't...most
regs say this to cover anything they might have forgoten.

Agree with Viper. Assume you can't have it. "Materials must be same as standard Ford parts", or words to that effect. However, fuel
pump is free and exhaust and air filter are free. The last 2, and optimised ignition, are where you will get your power gains. Around 90bhp is
competitive, so I am told.

Box Hill
Box Hill meet, I know, I know!
Only started the car last month, only found this site since then! Didn't know about the meets or I'd have been down there.
Literally I could ROLL my chassis down the Hill to Ryka's where I presume y'all meet? It is literally "just down the road" for
me..out the house, turn left, go down Zig Zag road, turn left, I'm there!
When is the next meet?!
Strategy?! Wot strategy?! :-)

BOX HILL
The meet is open to all, and is normally at 10am on the 1st sunday of each month. Typicaly as I'm telling you this, the nxt one is postponed to
the sunday after i think cos its 'Stoneleigh' the 1st weekend of the month 
Have a look in the 'Clubs and Events' section on this site. Most of the guys that go to Box Hill are building for the road, but are an
enormous source of information as they are all ahead of us on the build !
Take care all, And be seeing you at Stoneleigh or Box Hill
Jason
ps: For those that don't know, Stoneleigh is big kitcar show in the midlands(Warwickshire)

What engine?
Apologies for jumping in on this thread but I am new to locost and am just about to embark on my first car. I intend to build a 4x4 from an XR 4x4
2.9L V6 sierra. I was therefore just wondering if there were any categories that the car could be raced in?
