mac#1 worx
i have been looking at the worx mac#1's on pistonheads and was wondering what your opinions were of the quality, handling and speed? it needs to
be bec and the one which cought my eye was a 2005 1000rr fireblade motor! the reason i ask is that i have spent far too much on my mnr and may have to
sell it for something a little bit less expensive. i had no choice but to finnish the car but its put me under a bit of pressure financially! any
problems etc with them? thanks

Yes mine is the much revered and sought after classic model from 2004.
Not had it dyno'd yet, but grusk2 with a newer engine managed 168 but it still requires further tuning.

I have just brought the GSXR blue one from pistonheads  and am getting it next weekend! The current owner says its 135bhp at the wheels and weight
approx450kg. 300BHP\ton is very healthy! I did two research and asked many people. very few have a bad thing to say about Mac 1. I wanted a Mac 1 or
Mk. MK do seem to sost more, dont know why.

Im 99% happy with mine (the other 1% is due to there is always room for improvment ha ha )
Ive done about 500 miles on the road, and a bit more hard driving on the track and nothing fell off, got bent, snapped, rattled loose or caught
fire..................so far

If there anything you want to know about this car speak to Marc and his dad.
there username on here is mac1ZR and they built the gsxr car.
The mac the OP is talking about looks absolutly stunning,
Sadly Ady the owner sold it today,
bloody shame as i wanted to go see it Sunday

thanks guys.i think they look really nice and seem very good value! dont get me wrong, i love the mnr but its cost far more than i expected it to and
cant really afford to keep it! what would be the engine of choice? most appear to be blades but i was under the impression there were better options
available.
