MK Indy RR Hayabusa engined, Opinions

[shane@mbtech]

Has anyone owned one of these?

Thinking of buying one to play with in the summer then sell on, would like some real word views on these. I know the busa engine is a corker and pretty reliable.

They are 12k new, so not big bucks for thrills.

Thanks

I considered a MK when I was on the search for a BEC. I settled with a Mac1 Worx 9R. Never managed to get it on track, however I did manage to scare the s**t out of everyone I took out. Sequential Gearbox, no reverse, revving to 11k RPM, wheel spin in every gear (6) only weighing 435kg, 328bhp/tonne. You've got to me a mentalist to buy a Hayabusa!! Good luck. ;)

Mate of mine had a westfield megabusa, avoid that engine in a car unless properly dry sumped, baffled \ accusump doesn't cut the mustard as he found to his expense.
