Thumbs up ScoobyMania's WR1

Had the opportunity to photograph the 550BHP ScoobyMania car this week - tis a bit of a beast to say the least. Awesome attention to detail

Engine bay is okay but the exterior is bloody ugly

I appreciate the effort but IMO its not as nicely finished as Chris Bucklers (lesser powered) RCM WR1.

Hi.

Peak Power is 554BHP @6800rpm 500BHP being available from circa 5000rpm out well past 7000rpm.

It runs our stage 3 sleeved engine 2.5Litre block with all supporting ancillaries, running at 1.75Bar boost on 95 RON (NUL) petrol.

Needs de-tangoing but other than that, she looks amazing. Well done to all those involved.

With all that stuff done, what was the point in starting with a WR1? Just the exterior colour?

Hey, I know the answer to that one. It was at Ariane Photographic Studios Ariane Photographic Studios: Tamworth .

Top setup there as well, (Thanks Paul). Everything you could possibly need, including a very tidy and clean little kitchen.

The day goes so much faster when there are VERY attractive models trooping in and out as well.

It needs a front lip as the carbon Front mount surround looks unfinished at the bottom !

Also has to be detangoed ! (nice kitchen there ! Could have detangoed while they were shooting the rear)

Love the mouth on it. I personally wouldn't have the stickers. Also agree with the de-tango and lip spoiler.

Engine bay is cleaner than my kitchen

Nice Turbo blanket.

The last photo is cracking too.

Unfortunately, no you won't. It's not "ours" you see, it belongs to a customer and it will be on a boat out of the country within the next 2 weeks.

Our company demonstrator is of a noticeably higher spec though (and will be ran on decent fuel as well), it will markedly out perform this car, but is our "mule" which is an STi 7, so it won't be as attractive externally I'm afraid.

We're not big "drag" fans either so while we may do a couple to get some figures, it's unlikely to participate in much (if any) competitive 1/4 mile stuff. Now track days, that's a different matter entirely.
