Looking forward to many years of fun and looking forward to finding out a lot more ablation the community. I do hope you can make it to Stoneleigh it will be a fantastic show, and then of course we have the Silverstone Classic. Quote
SXRORY Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 looks mean! What engine? newish owner myself from Bristol loving mine. Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 Was about to guess st a Vauxhall C20XE as it looks like a Simpsons exhaust system for one, then I spotted the poster has put his car details below his profile, and sure enough, it's a Vauxhall C20XE "red-top".

Hothatch01 Posted April 18, 2017 Author Posted April 18, 2017 If knowledge is power you "gadgetman" must be a very powerful person. It is indeed a c20xe, and in fact if you can tell me anything else about it it would be much appreciated, is just been flicking through some quite hefty receipts from SBD Motorsport and can see it has been fitted with a dry sump kit, Jenvy throttle bodies, uprated clutch, and a host of other parts that I don't even know what the are. But any other info that you can tell me, like exhaust etc etc would be great. I'll try and upload an engine bay pick as well. Quote
SootySport Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 to another redtop owner. If you scan the SBD parts lists and post them up we'll tell what they do. Car looks great and will make a good trackday car. Quote
Martyn Vann - Warwickshire AO Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 The car and the pics look great! As Bernie says it looks like it would be brilliant track day car in addition to an awesome road car Quote
Hothatch01 Posted April 26, 2017 Author Posted April 26, 2017 I am hoping to get it on a track probably next year, want to get a few miles under my belt in it before I start tracking or hill climbing it. My next job though is to take it to my local weigh bridge as it's only £10. I'm intrested to know what it weighs as I get the impression there can be huge differences between cars. Quote

Ill be honest I don't think you can learn too much on the road.. I've had not had mine long and never drove anything like it before. Having only had fast tin tops. I did not really get comfortable with my car until I did a trackday as i did not know what it could do, or was going to do. You can learn so much more on a track. I'm much happier with it now. Not that I drive it crazy on the road or anything but i have an idea of the limits. They are also a right laugh in a Westfield so it's win win. Get one booked! 1 Quote
