Siert Posted November 5, 2001 Author Share Posted November 5, 2001 Well lucky for us Dutchmen ....we stick all the sevens together in one start field That means Katerhams,VM,Westfields,Sylva striker,tiger,nova, Donkervoort all together although there were 3 klasses this year. Sport for 8 valve engines, supersport for 16 valves and a seperate class for the donkervoort audi and cosworth turbo engines! Much more fun that way although and although the bike engined cars are few in numbers there even a Sylva Furry Slight mistake but if you want a look at the list you can find it at Dutch super sevens competition and look under " competitie" and then "deelnemers" which are the competitors! You will even find an Englishman called Rory who didn't do too bad in his Katerham( i'm trying to beat these darn stars!!) So you see I'm still looking for info on on these locost race chassis to see how they compare!!! You see...they didn't reply at all on their boardroom...I was hoping for more luck with the Westfield crowd!!! regards Siert. c******m spelled as Katerham does work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatman Posted November 5, 2001 Share Posted November 5, 2001 From what I've seen of LoCost chassis, I wouldn't touch one with a barge pole. c******m chassis are proved by their longevity, but I would not want to race a car which had major suspension components in single shear. Although in the event of a crash, a single shear fitting may well save most of the chassis around it, possibly saving on rebuild costs. I would have thought that a single shear arrangement was less stiff as well. A nice Westfield race chassis is definitely the way to go in my opinion. If you get the MT75 gearbox tunnel, and fit a type 9 gearbox, you can get the engine all the way back in the chassis, for better weight distribution.

gee_fin Posted November 6, 2001 Share Posted November 6, 2001 Martin, not started yet, we'll see how things go Mark, yeah, I remember seeing a couple of c******ms on the entry list but they never turned up. Shame as it would have been interesting to compare times. I've got a friend in an SLR who's coming along next year and he might be dragging along a couple of fellow club members as well. Should be very interesting. The SLR fits into the road-car class on list 1 so it will be up against Guy - they'll need all the luck they can get to beat him! Graeme.

Fast Westie Posted November 6, 2001 Share Posted November 6, 2001 Siert Unfortunately I don't speak Dutch. Do you have a bit more info (sepc, costs etc) since I may be interested in doing some races next year. I am currently running in the SEMSEC series in Lydden, Kent. We get a lot of, a few Westfields, a Fury and sometimes a Striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siert Posted November 7, 2001 Author Share Posted November 7, 2001 Sorry I don't know any of the details but if you contact the race coordinator I'm sure he cananswer any questions you might have! competitie@dssc.nl good luck regards Siert.
