Some of you may recall my BB1 track car, that is now sold & having fun with it's new
owner @luigi33 :)

Here it's replacement pictured with it's new brother :D

It definately isn't at home on the road - noisey, smelly & short-geared - vtecs in 5th at approx 75mph!

Max power is 206bhp @ 8730rpm & it only weighs around 800kgs!! :shock:

It has a Kaaz 1.5 way lsd & judders away turning at low speeds & sniffs out cambers @Merlin

I'll post some track videos soon - 1st stop Cadwell :twisted:

my swift gti is exactly the same, worst thing i have ever driven on the road and exagerated by the lack of power steering. it also eats cv joints like there is no tomorrow with only just over half your power.

@tramroadmotors My Swift killed no end of CV joints and it wasn't even the GTI :lol:

its the lsd in mine, its so tight its unbelievable and the torque steer is bad too considering it has so little torque :lol: i need to fit an eps column from a corsa and that should sort it.
