Any help apprieciated.
Need to build / strip a 1.1 sporting to compete in the Practical Performance Car £999 challenge
The event consists of a standing 1/8 mile and 2 laps of corbrough circuit.
I have located and bought the car (£200) and would like to get as much out of it as I can for this event.
Hopefully by the next event I can graft an engine inthe back.
So , I have not picked the car up yet, so I will have a week and ahalf to prep it.
I am assuminmg that I can save some weight by stipping out the interior, and fitting a single light weight fibreglass seat and harness.
Can anyone give me the dimensions of glass, so I can try and get hold of some platic replacement. I assume the glass will be heavy.
Will it things improve much by cutting one coil of each spring to lower the car?
Strut brace ?
I read somewhere that fitting wider tyres on the from improves things a little.
What Size can I get away with?
Any help would be good
