R5 drag car

[dannykgordini]

Some pics of my Renault 5gt turbo drag car that I have been building for 4years..

[dannykgordini]

The car has a Gordini head with bigger valves and loads of porting.Ive also stroked the engine to a 1600cc using a 84mm crank and larger Venolia pistons and en24t steel liners.Ive had custom manifolds fabricated, the exhaust manifold is equal lenth and was fabricated by Simpsons race exhausts.

Any plans in particular? Are you going to be running this in the national championships? If so, do you know which class? Or are you going to be sticking to RWYB/SRS days?

Just going to run the car at a few RWYB's and see how the car goes
