hi, can i ask what size rear sway bar i should run in my bv8 race car. currently i run a 5/8 rear with 1 inche front bar but find its to much understeer.
Great vid and sounds. Did chuckle a bit at the Escort going round Quarry towards the end. 300bhp is good to aim for but do you have a lap time for Combe?
Just watched it again and it is a bit of a beast and your throttle control is very good. 1.18 is very good and yeah..... when it's wet all you big BHP guys suffer more so. Again good vid.
This is my 9th year of trackdaying with the car. Every winter it gets modified so not a lot left standard. This winters mods include new Merlin heads with bigger valves. Chasing the magic 300bhp
Fantastic footage,u really need to be in this car to appreciate how fast this car goes..did u see that red evo with race numbers ..i bet his eyesballs fell out being over taken by a classic mgb and as for the escort being lapped in this section
Hi ,were the merlin heads were worth the time and effort afterall ?

my gtv8 race car has no interior at all apart from dash. what would i have to do to reduce the weight to under 1000kg?
rb20detrb20det 2 years ago
You will need to save weight everywhere which tends to get expensive. How much does yours weigh ?
