Do u know if it's eligible for 750MC RGB championship ?
I wonder what mods it would need if any - elec cut off & extinguisher I guess to start with.
Looks like the kind of tool that would do quite well.

Thumbs up

It has an electrical cut off and had an extinguisher (I removed it to save weight ) The previous owner had done a few RAC sprints with it so no problems with scrutineering

The road tyres it sits on are Avon ACB10's which I believe are most popular with the BEC racers.

I checked this cars performance on my AP22 and it was equal to my scoob with 375 bhp up to 100 MPH.

Where it really surprised me was the cornering G force, the scoob, on Leda coilovers and sticky Yokohama grooved slicks pulled 1.15G The Sylva on the Avons pulled 1.32G !! (on the same roundabout) That's almost 15% more. ie A corner the scoob could take at 70 mph, this would take at 80 mph !!
Plus it's perfectly balanced on the throttle mid corner, something I just can't do without drama in the scoob

You dont understand John. This is an AndyF machine and if you read his previous posts, he's the kind of guy to not only keep his car immaculate, but tune em like mad. I'd say he's selling it a bit cheap to be honest..

Can't buy it. Need to fund another project. Had I known he was selling it before I committed myself, I would've.

Cool

I'll shortly be selling my Blackbird engined Sylva Striker, even smaller/lighter/faster than a westfield

165 bhp - 10,000 rpm - 400kg
6 speed sequential
Pushbutton gear shift
Cosworth brakes all round
Rose jointed adjustable coilovers
Adjustable ARBs
Quaife LSD
Alloy rad and oil cooler
Samco/Aeroquip hoses

Taxed 6m and MOT'd 1 year(cheap insurance £170/year)

Also extra set of compomotives/slicks for trackday use.
Purpose built small trailer available if required.








Priced around £7500 with spares/trailer
That's the price of a decent gearbox and an engine rebuild for your scoob !! (will consider part exchange for bike/car)
