Yeah...
imagine what it will be like when all the ali panels get replaced with carbon fibre sheet. and when all the nuts and bolts get replaced with titanium ones. and with race suspension. All being well we will weigh 450kg wet.
That was their boggo basic ROAD car !!!

When are Radical going to lend them an SR3...?
Can't see anything being faster round that circuit than one of 'em...Even an Caterham R500 would struggle to beat it...
Just imho of course!

Only slight problem is that radicals are still not road legal. There isn't an SVA approved SR3 out there at the moment. It would be comparing against a true race car.
Even so - the SR3 would toast the zonda too.

Dan - no point in fitting a scooby engine m8.
The busa engine and gearbox weighs 85kg with all the bits (loom etc). A scooby engine and gearbox is too heavy.
Besides - £2500 buys you a Holeshot turbo kit - 1.3L bike engine producing 320bhp @13psi....ummmm nice.

Old V6 2.5l Cosworth as used in the Opel Calibra DTMs ? 450bhp and approx. 95kg ?
Of course, if you can get your hands on one.
Cheers

LOL.
Our car has a slight throttle sticking open at 8,500rpm problem at the moment. We'll get this resolved before Bedford.
Our trick race suspension may be on by then too.

er - we figured a 460kilo car with 320bhp motor would be something like 607bhp/tonne.
I think a turbo could ruin the car - we'll try 100bhp progressive nitrous to begin with I think.

All I can say is Westfields demo car sucks. It's slow for a start
Has a 5hite coour scheme
Lights look ****
Wheels are dire
Brakes are crap
Seats should be in a mondeo
etc etc.
And yes - ours is better, nicer looking, faster and cooler

If we had 300+K I think Craig and I would be sharing a Zonda too.
(Obviously we'd need an Enzo and Lambo too for daily drivers).
But for the time being we'll 'make do' with the westi
