0-400km/h :12.3s Really..?

I'd be pretty confident that's a typo.

Guessing 12.3 is the quarter mile time. Also guessing that it's not as well balanced as a Caterham.

It should be a lot quick over the quarter than that Arnie my Mk Indy will do it 11.5 secs 1/4

Ooooh, I really like that!

My mate has a turbo' red top Westfield and did a lot of welding work on a LS3 Westfield a few years back. Dunno if it ever got finished.

Saw that when it was new at the Wilkinshaw open day way back.
Apparently it's quite a beast in the handling department being front heavy and can't get the power down.
Not for me.

Always a big gap between should-do and does.

So it's a Ute?

[mik_ok]

probably the most difficult car I've driven round the West circuit

Love the concept. Looks like there are some flaws in the execution however.

If your going to put a v8 in that type off car it needs to be light



That car would a handful on a B road but bloody fast in a straight line due to weight

[bimbleuk]

Gee that's one heavy Se7en style kit car at 900kgs. I guess they made it stiff to handle the torque ... at least that's what I would be saying


Still light compared to the normal LS based cars at least.
