Any Dax ppl out there? What would it weigh with a turbo cossie?

My bike engined Rush is under 500Kg so a car engined Rush will be a minimum of 550-600 Kg. With weather gear, heavy wheels/tyres etc it could well be 650-700 Kg.

Is your car a turbo busa? or standard engine?

There's a guy on the locostbuilders site, know as (hicost) with a 400bhp+ Cosworth locost, maybe worth asking him how much that weighs in at, will be similar.
Its been a very reliable car an d he does lots of European events in it, long distance rallies etc......

Supercharged. Haven't weighed it since adding the supercharger, intercooler, plenum and pipework etc but it's now probably +15 Kg or so.

I've sold it now but my Cosworth powered Rush weighed 600kg with Lotus Elise seats, no weather gear, no heater or fan.

Cossie Rushs tend to weight in @ 700 to 750 kilosm depending on trim level etc.

If you are interested in buying a dax, i'll be selling my dax rush busa in a month or so.

it's a standard engine which has had a lot of work done by holeshot, 2002, 10000 miles on the clock. although the engine was re-freshed and re-built only 2 months ago. receipts for everything.

this is much quicker than the cossie turbo engined version.

If you are interested PM me and i'll give you more details.

cheers.
