Might look OK, but I'd worry about messing up the nice stiff chassis...

btw the car above is the Delfino Feroce, it was meant to be based on the Impreza, i think 22B because it had a claimed 0-60mph of 3.8!!

I think it was based on a standard UK-spec car; the greater speed was due to the reduced weight. I believe also that Delfino originally wanted P1 engines, but Subaru wouldn't supply.

Anyone know what happened to this project? Did it just make it as far as one prototype and then die?

I was standing in the pit lane at donno and the guy rolled up next to me in the delfino. So I took a few pictures. he lent the car to a couple of scoobynetters/iwocers.

http://www.iwoc.co.uk/reviewsdelfino.html

Not heard anything for a while, a real shame as I think it may have done well.

Here the rest of the pictures I took. I was climbing all of the car and the guy was just egging me on . As much exposure as he could I think, espcially when I told him I would upload and post link on scoobynet .

delfino @ donno
