Yea did a bit of reaserch on this a while back. Originaly run in belgium gt's. Came over here to do the gt enduro series. Only finished one race i believ. Was a 4.5 V8.

Now you see I like those headlights. And if wasn't so dead set on keeping the car original I'd change to that type.

I like the RAM air scoops. I wonder if they would help a standard cerb.

There linked to a pair of high flow cone filters. I think its the route im going to take on the race cerb.(by the way i need a name for my project!)

That looks like the car campaigned by colin blower and sponsored by HHC .. at one point ran a 5 litre ajp8 if my source of info is correct. I think guy at nitron had some chassis input and was far removed from a cerbera underneath but my recollection on that is a bit sketchy.

I like the Ram air thingamy's too, would look quite subtle and in keeping I think (just the 2 mind, without the large bit in the middle which i assume it just a for venting heat). Might be a job for Plasticman

Assuming those scoops are "piped" on to the filters, etc, it would be interesting trying to take the bonnet up! Id o like them though, very neat..

Right idea....wrong length if circumference kept as standard.

It looked better before it was bastardised by the belgians.

Changed the front end IIRC - theres an article on PH *somewhere* about this being done... looks like its been half converted back, but the car looks more like a supermodel - skinny and odd, rather than the far nicer fuller bodied curvy temptress it once was.


Edit, maybe its just the photo angle, but it does look flat... almost overwheeled too.
