At the moment we're currently making some changes to the engine and rollcage :wink:
i'll have to dig out the full spec of it :grin:

if anyone knows of any proper rolling road centers in East Anglia, i'd love to know where thay are, i know of SCA race rally, but no one else? :roll:

:thumb: Very nice and a big hello check out APT in norwich for a local rolling road although not sure what he does for an A+ a bit further out near stneots there is an old school carb man, Peter Baldwin. He does a lot of work with grass track minis, anything really with a carb and not some fancy ECU :wink:

Ah i've seen a Black Evo at Snett a while back that had a APT livery on it, is that the one? :grin:
i'll give them a call, thanks!

Heres a short list off of the top of my head;
The engine is a 998 A, with a ful stage 1 kit (looking around 50-60 bhp mark, but need a rolling road session to confirm) full uprated racing fuel system, plumbed in onboard fire extinguisher (as well as two hand helds) 6 point rollcage, bucket seats, harnesses, fully adjustable Spax competition mini7 dampers as per regulation specs, virtually all new parts on the car, fully removeable steel front and bonnet, short shift, isolator switch. (i really need to find that list :roll: )

I've heard of Peter Baldwin, he used to race in the mini7 championships :wink: i'll have a look there too, cheers!


Thanks for the warm welcome guys!
