I loved mine and the best adrenaline fix going. Gotta like the screaming 12k rpm ah. How do you get on with sequential box and no reverse?

Get out and push. Aah,

Gonna trailer to and from track so should be fine, but if it presents a problem ill make something! Starter motor on a gear attached to pinion should do it, :smokin:

I definitely recommend a trailer, something I didn't have and would have ended up keeping it if I could have trailered it around, along with the workshop full of tools and spares. :smokin:
I looked into the paddle shift system which is worth looking at, got the details somewhere.

Hi,

Lawsy- that will keep you honest at
full chat.

Does, or do they suffer 'bump steer''
issues ?

Looking at the steering tie rod in the
picture, I would guess yes, a lot ?

Regards,

The Gorilla.

That's one rapid Track Toy U got there Lawsy... NICE :drool: ... and as Gorilla said it'll keep U honest.
I'll also make the CSL feel sloooow :bigcry:

Make sure you do mate - said mate's westfield blew up at Donny, they are designed to tilt during cornering and the oil system can't cope with being in a car!

I dry sumped the CSL at the Ring ...once! :hahaha: ... well ...almost but for my highly tuned lugholes !

Looking good Lawsy.:thumbs::thumbs:

There have been a few dry sump failures on the bike engined cars too Nathan.

I have spoke to various teams running said engines for over 2 years with no issues.

They have a billet, baffled sump with a gyroscopic pick up to minimise possibilty of oil surge.

I am not tracking it until next year, so gonna personalise it over the winter.

Matt- No turbo plans just yet, that will come if this engine blows;)


Just took it out for a blast, its very quick but not as quick as it could be, as it has a long diff fitted to it. I have 2 spare diffs with different ratios so will see how she is on track. Its most definitely fun, took my cousin out in it and all we did for 5 miles was giggle like mad. Chalk and cheese compared to the CSL.

They can be silly fast, when my mate first drove his car it had a 1500 race engine in it, fooking quick!
