Once the engine is tuned it will go to Mike Navybox for corner weight then tuned to suit Wakefield Park. I have no doubt Mike will manage a 1.05 in the car if not better.
The car was built for endurance racing. I fit doesnt sell buy later this year you will see the car on speedweek competing in the Winton 300 and the Wakefield 300 sprint races.
Spares included will be all glass windows, full set of poly bushed lower control arm links.
 
This car does not drive or handle like your regular MR2, it is simply in another world compared to a road going MR2. As for the brakes these have been noted by current race drivers as being one of the best braking packages they have come across. The report was 'this will win races under brakes', 'unbelievable braking power' , 'very sweet to drive'.
Most parts are virtually brand new with some acually being brand new untested. The replacement cost for this car including parts and labour will exceed $80000. This is an excellent turn key competitive car for anyone able to purchase such a car.
 
Price: 25,000 or near offer
Serious enquiries please PM.
 
Thanks
 
Steve

Another MR2 is still on my mind but I have always enjoyed the E36 V8 which ran in the Bathurst 24hr race and compete in ALMS for many years so have always had a desire to build one. Just another box to tick I guess.
I do love the SW20,  fantastic car, excellent to drive, tight ,quick, beautiful to look at, unique. It started with a perfect chassis which I developed into something more so there is nothing wrong with the car. Its a new race car ready to go.
I dont expect it to move very quickly so will enjoy driving the car some more as well as developing it some more, enjoy some track days and such.
Serious buyers will be able to  meet on track for inspection and test drive with conditions but please no joy riders.

Hi Steve,
Firstly my apologies if this message finds you way too late, but I have only just joined.

Cheers

Yes, still have the car but it has a new engine,turbo,suspension,clutch,gearbox and more so price needs to be adjusted.
It will not be up for sale until Feb next year. PM to discuss

Not in a hurry, but am serious and am looking for something now and will continue to try and find an SW20 as that is all I want. Let me know your thoughts on price adjustment and we can discuss if necessary.
