Myself and my dad were here at Mallory watching and taking photos. I knew your car from Time Attack already, told him you'd be one to watch, and you really did make brilliant progress through the race! Gutted the day came to an end the way it did, is our Boxing Day tradition to go watch the Plum Pudding meet. Great video nonetheless, and a really useful insight. Cheers, looking forward to seeing the car compete elsewhere.

@@Sprintcup1 thank you Russ. Not as such. Running a very busy business and competing very sadly means there was little time back in 2011 to log the build.

May I ask why you didn't use the 1.9 gti engine?
@SpooxMotorsportLTD4 ай бұрын
@@richardjones2811 yes of course. We had a very powerful platform at our disposal with the turbo charged TU5J4. We have been building them for many years reliably in excess of 400bhp so there was no testing and development needed. At the time F1, world touring car and WRC had gone 1.6 turbo so it was fitting with what was going on globally in motorsport. The space was greater in the engine bay, which meant I could focus on lengths and diameters of boost hoses and exhausts to make it super efficient, it looks prettier and more importantly for me it hadn’t been done before, it was something different. They are the main reasons.

@SpooxMotorsportLTD Жыл бұрын
The sequential gearbox has lower gear ratios, as there is now 6 gears we can spread close then together even more and still have a higher top speed. We were only running low boost and ther terminals were 1/2 mph different so it’s very positive! The front end issue is now resolved thank you 👍🏻
