Did anyone see the program ?

Quite interesting although I am not really sure where the F1 inspired tech was. Just goes to show (as we all know) what can be done with a budget and a light car.

As an aside, has anyone run their cars on a 1/4 mile strip. I would be curious to know what a 150bhp locost would do it in ?

I thought it was quite interesting.

He sheaded quite a lot of weight and kept every thing else the same to start with. I was supprised how loosing that much weight really did make it shift. I kelp comparing it to my car, until they turbo'd it!!

Remember it was 150 at the wheels. "190ish in pub bragging rights"

Oh and also, light weight wheels, A048s, fully adjustble shocks and springs all for £400, that is pully in a favour. Something tells me they blew the budget and had to write in a back story afterwards!!!





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