Question

Moses, not joking here but I'm thinking about selling my current scoob and building something else, either a 2 door scoob with a 2.5 'all singing, all dancing' eng and dog box. Or possibly an EVO
What would be the best model to start from to build a track day/dragrace weapon ? What price ?

I presume the RS is the equivalent of the Scoob RA ? No frills lightweight version
What about centre diffs ? what's the torque split on an RS ? or can you get an active one at a reasonable price ?

What price for a full sequential dog gearbox ?

hi mate it is just like the ra , i dont really know about the torque splits but its lol put it this way, ayc makes a driver look cool and if u have a rs u need to be a driver otherwise u will put it through a wall , i only need the rs diff setup coz my ayc will split at launching , thats the only reason i would have loved to keep the ayc in it mate , u can use kaaz rally diffs in it makes for a awesome showdown

and dog box brand new modena one is 4800 plus vat , glebe is 3200 plus 600 for a second hand box mate , rnd is the same price as a modena, the seqeuntial is 50 k and if u want a semi seqential like mines its 1k , it fits over your standard box but u need to use your clutch


dougster mate sorry dude , u know i cant help it, but i do try

that jet quad was ridiculous because their is now was he could even go down the strip in is because he would never have been able to keep it straight and thats if i didn't just leave the ground!

Lol @ Moses the stalker Different car, I sold it over 2 years ago. The car you phoned about had a Honda Blackbird bike engine in it (but was still faster than your evo )

rumour has it, that it's Sam who has the weakest ring, I think mo has worn it out , so the toilet would certainly help him.

Yes Kev, the Fugitive still lives in Edinburgh but only gets played with a few times a year now

This is how it looked when I circuit raced it




This was with the body kit off for drag racing (still road legal)




And this is how it looks now but it has had heavy bodywork and a heavy duty roll cage added which has slowed it back down into the 10's Oh and it also has lots of stickers on it now !

It was the one on Wheelnuts blowing away the Hayabusa

Not sure the new owner would want the actual price banded about but as an indication it sold for somewhere between 15 and £20k

It has a 6.0 Chevy small block V8 mated to a Porshe 930 turbo transaxle.
Approx 450-500 eng bhp plus a 2 stage N2O system 120/250bhp

The 9.43 run was using 100bhp jets on Stg 1 only and std pump fuel.

When I ran it at York on a grippy surface it lifted the front wheels 6" on take off

Also lapped Knockhill in 54 secs on road tyres
