Gearbox, Diff & Brake fluid changed before every season.

This very competitive car slots in just under 2600cc road going in some competitions or the over 2.0 Litre road going class in others. Regularly beats much more powerful cars. 1060kg & 285hp.

Whilst this car is pretty quick in a straight line, it’s the predictable handling that lets you really lean hard on the chassis- that’s where it makes time.

The cold & hot starts are always good. It is mapped for approximately a reliable 285hp as at the time I was running the weaker 5 speed gearbox- it is capable of more.

The front chassis legs are solid,as is the rest of the chassis: It is regularly Lanoguarded & ACF50’d.
