So where are the pics, results and, more important, your impressions of the car's handling and behaviour compared to other 105s? Do you feel that you lost or won something compared to competitors with similar HP and was it in turns, straight lines or where? The obviously different weight distribution of your car was a con and to what extend? I hope I don't ask for too much but what you did with your car is of great interest for some of us. Thanks

Nice, Does the extra weight of the engine effect the handling at all? How much power does she make?

No and he didnt pass me

Yes and he did pass me !!!!

 

[GTV-GR]

A nicely set up T/S will produce about the same amount of power as the V6 minus the weight, SO that would be: one T/S , one V6 and of course one S2000 for me please!

Whats the car behind me?????????

Is it that Elise-based Vauxhall ?

We call it Opel Speedster on continental Europe.

 

[V6 GTJ]

Looks like you opened a can of whoop *** on the field to be that far in front

What mods have been done to the suspension (also the braking), as the rear of may car tends to skip at the rear end under really hard braking (Still the std 2 litre). and also gets a bit loose in the tail

Re other post a TS would not have the torque of a V6 ( I have a 2.5 v6 in a alfa 90 and it kills the TS engine, with shall we say a mild tune) and the weight should be no problem, but regards t Max's car tha may be another story as i suspect that would be a full house
