A few important points to note:
• Power steering system was removed which means the steering is a little heavy. The rack section of the steering has been welded for strength and it provides more direct steering. I have the pump and some parts available, but it will need some know-how and engineering to rebuild if wanted.
• I have experimented with weight reduction and have not only cut out the internals of the doors, after removing the power windows, but I then removed the glass and designed some perspex windows. The passenger side has an air-dam for airflow into the car. I still have the window glass if you want it.
• Both seats are bolted to the floor. I'm 6 foot and can reach the pedals, so you'll need to adjust the length to suit. I have some slide rails which are included.
I would have loved to have had the time and money to get some serious work done on the engine as it could well be a sub-60 second car at Lakeside. This car is strong, reliable, the best fun to drive and has potential to be a category winner, especially with an actual race car driver behind the wheel. All it needs is the Catch Can installed, and the pull cable secured to the kill switch and this car will be ready to race in Production Sports 2F.
