Any info?

Belongs to our engine builder, Marc Lamude. 1900hp from a Procharged big block Chevy. Marc does 6000 miles a year in it.. It runs 8s

A good proportion of those 6000 are clocked up by going up and down the Kings Road in Chelsea on Saturday afternoons. A fantastic spectacle the first time you see/hear it, but after it rumbles past the window for the 10th time it begins to get a bit wearing...

Saw this at Prescott for Pugfest last year (not my video). Wheelspin is an understatement, although he was having a laugh. It's pulled respectable times with drag slicks.

I saw it at Autosport show and I wouldn't want to be in an impact over 5mph in it, ignoring the way the seats were mounted, the front slam panel had been cut away and replaced with the tiniest strip of aluminum you have ever seen, it was pretty much just the intercooler holding the front end together.

What do you think the original slam panel would've done anyway?

It's definitely a bit mental.

I'm sure it's a wonderful car, and all. But when it's driven in ostensibly the same way as a Corsa with a farty exhaust, it becomes every bit as annoying as a Corsa with a farty exhaust.

On acquiring a donor vehicle, the Ford Transit was internally stripped and had the rear floor and axle mountings completely removed. An integral roll cage was created to add rigidity back to the vehicle. A new design of floor with axle mountings was fabricated with allowance for hydraulic ramps to be fitted. This enabled the front of the Ford Transit van to be lifted two metres at the front allowing a jedi formula race car to escape the confines of the van.

That's been knocking around for sale for ages. Nice idea, but those wheels are awful.

I agree about the wheels

Sod the wheels, someone put the decimal point a digit too far to the right.

At the risk of falling foul of the Name & Shame police, I've had dealings with that particular dealer....
