This car is very competitive in its own right, it has been run by myself, a pure privateer driver for four seasons.

Maintained to an exceptional standard, with no effort spared in pursuit of improved performance. It offers the opportunity to mix it at the sharp end of the grid. It has untapped potential in the right hands. The car is a stable and fast platform on which to develop your driving skills. Never crashed or significantly damaged, it is a very fast, straight, and well developed chassis.
Full suspension frequency analysis has been performed and this is available to assist the new owner along with wet and dry baseline setup sheets. The car can be tuned from “benign” to “fun” in order to support your particular driving style.

Currently fitted with a 998cc Honda 2008 CBR1000RR engine and AB Performance sump, and a custom stainless steel AB Performance exhaust, Power Commander and custom made carbon fibre components (front floor and crash box, rear floor). The car is rear engined and chain drive with a Quaife ATB torque biasing differential, and adjustable drive ratios via a selection of custom sprockets.

Double wishbones and pushrod suspension all round, allows fully independent adjustment of suspension characteristics such as bump/rebound, suspension frequency, ride height and corner weight. Shim packs on each upright, allow independent adjustment of camber and toe. Double adjustable protect dampers are fitted to each corner, to provide independent control of bump and rebound. Paddock "ready reckoner" notes will be supplied to allow quick and easy setup changes.

Instrumentation is a ETB DigiDash Pro, which is also a data logger, showing basic engine telemetry, shift lifts, gear selection indicator etc. The dashboard can be programmed and log traces downloaded and analysed with the downloadable software
