MR2 midi....
Absolutely nothing to do with me, but I had a chuckle stumbling across this tonight.
Weight distribution must be rather interesting, as must the concept of power-on understeer.

I actually like that and bet it'll handle fine, although you may want to keep the fuel topped up in the wet It's got the stonking 20v
4AGE motor that does about 165bhp @ 8Krpm

I thought that was a 4AGE, it confused me being listed as a 2.0L engine as I was expecting a 3SGE.

Yes it's the 1.6 20v version of the 4AGE, a real screamer of a motor and not too heavy either. I reckon that makes it a very decent package
indeed

That looks like the Robin Hood prototype from way back.

Looks pretty nicely executed actually and I expect it'll handle quite cleanly. Slightly more rear heavy than the donor (this is why I
didn't go with a transverse mid rear design ultimately) but not too bad. I expect it's very controllable.
