Autograss cinq class 1

Hi All

i'm about to start building a class 1 autograss car, this class was previously only for 1000cc mini's but from april the rules change and now permit citroen AX 954cc and fiat Cinquecento 899cc alt ough the car and engine must remain standard

I've got a 1993 model which is to be the base of my project, i was wondering if anyone knows of any tips and tricks to squeeze every last drop of power out of the engine. The earlier 903cc engine is not allowed nor is the 1108cc or "fire" engine

any help would be greatly apreciated and if you would like to see what the sport is about visit http://www.eveshamautograss.com

all the best

Nice thing to start with is that the Cinquecento has got a much better wheel base than the standard Mini.

What can you do to the engine and what can't you do?

God this brings back memorys cardiff & district auto grass not sure if its still going now load of memories perticaly the roll overs had plenty off them and written of cars gr8 times

Unfortunately the regs on the website still say minis only. How far are you allowed to go, and is there a selling plate rule or anything silly like that.

General rules of tuning will still apply to the 899, although getting a new cam could be expensive.

just roll up in a normal road car. not much you can change if the car and engine has to stay standard
