Here is a video of my 2009 season racing in the Dunlop Abarth Championship in ireland
 
25 of them specially ordered from the factory in 2003 for the championsip. not allowed reshell them 23 left. great racing.

thats my car by theway
 
they are great. 170 bhp no power steering on dunlop slicks. good quick race car
 
thort theyd do the rear bumpers for the abarth diffrent than the sporting bumper.

btw grate video, love the tunes aswell.

you need to get some fiatforum.com decals on there. boost the reputation up for this site slightly lol.

grate driving btw (y)
 
They have a touring car ecu and a few bits, the rules are very very strict, they could be 200bhp very easily but the strict rules garentee close racing. thay are awsome but arnt cheap to run. i raced irish unos for years before hand.

200 bhp? don't suppose you might have an idea of the performance stats on a tune up of that degree? Must be one hot tamale to handle at that sort of power. Can only imagine what fun that would be... :p

Love the vid btw!

i dont no all the stats. BT Racing run the car and look after all the tecnical stuff. there is plenty of grip with the dunlop 15" slcks and leda suspention. dont no what you would have to do to get 200bhp but id imagne a lot of money would have to be spent.

There alright to drive on the track but i wouldnt fancy it on the road probly a bit bumpy.
 
racing in the phoenix park was bumpy. i cant even imagine what the formula libras were like at 170 mph
 
Like a white-knuckle ride I'd expect without an on-board safety system if things get really hairy for you, real edge-of-teeth driving, for your average peeps certainly would keep their bowels regular and spare underwear an optional extra..:D
