Hey Guest one of our sponsors Progressive Parts is running Black Friday and Cyber Monday offers - more details here
Got my body back..........!
- Thread starter max_torque
- Start date
I really hope that's going to be road legal ..... it's going to be insane when it is finished! Pity the poor soul who makes the mistake of thinking it's a sheep in wolfs clothing 
I am pretty sure it's not gonna be very quick with that motor
way back in about 1972 (? someone correct me if this is the wrong date!) there was a certain F1 car running a big fan to create "ground effect" via a vacuum! that is gonna be my version! NOT!
The entire fuel system is in the car, lines , pumps, filters, etc, but obviously suitably spec'd / sealed from the cabin to FIA international specs
F7r is originally from the clio williams, but this is the 714 version which is the Megane 16v homologation item for the Maxi kit cars, hence the block is 30% stiffer but 6kg lighter, which is nice. Even so i have done a lot of strengthening on the bottomed, with a 12mm steel plate and machined from solid crank bearing caps effectively turning the bottom end into a ladder frame style assembly, and then further stiffened by a machined from solid dry sump plate.
It is obviously running ALS! how else am i going to impress the chavs without a flaming tailpipe otherwise? loL!
not a great pic of the underneath bits:
the biggest problem i have, it that seeing professionally built WRC cars all day long, kinda sets the bar pretty high in terms of build quality and spec, hence the car has taken ages to put together!
Holy jesus. Can we see this and the ickle Badger beeza together when they are both up and running please?

LOL the SCn dream team
Have to say though the car looks fantastic it's a work of art
it would be a hell of an article for a magazine....
morphed nutter ibiza's with big extreme's of development and direction.
RobT's mental valver
my daft thing
Pauls beast.
They're all pretty darned wide these days to
You up for it one day when finished Paul?

Sounds good to me, on one condition! that we get them tested at a track that is not too small and has long straights,otherwise we might both get to look very silly indeed when Rob's pickle wipes the floor with both our cars!
how does Spa sound? lol!
Looking absolutely mental, to think all the years of effort that've gone into it - well worth it
Out of interest, when do you hope to complete this beast?

My god how tidy is your wiring!!!! That's really nice to see, shame it will all be hidden when the car is completed. Definitely beats tinkering with an old Qualcast in the potting shed
