Ginetta G27 championship race cars
Discussion
Now now!!
I've got a road going '27 and a G20R. Trying to compare as like with like as possible. Remember that the cars run on different spec. tyres, plus different engines and gearboxes..
At Pembrey last weekend, for instance, we (G20s) were running around at about 1m10.. G27s were going round in 1m06s.. Westies were doing 1m04s...
There's not much in it and to be honest the G20s will go faster (it's only the first full season they've been raced for).
Try a Caterham, try a Westie and try a '27 or 20 - the 20 chassis handles superbly.
For a low-cost, close championship the Ginetta one can't be beat. I've heard of many Caterham racers who've had to give up as competitors become obsessed by having new tyres and engine rebuilds and mods.
The Ginetta championship has a sealed 1.8 zetec, their own plenum, controlled tyre (Dunlop Formula R).
Of course I'm biased, but wait and see what's in Autosport and Motoring News this week..
