there's a national shortage of new R888's in the country at the minute. Toyo cant produce them fast enough and even then they are only limited to 6 approaved Toyo dealers in the country Demon Tweeks being one of them.

#57: Re: 1.6 XS Tarmac Rally Project (alot of pics) Author: imjeeves, Location: Glasgow / WellingPosted: Mon Apr 04, 2011 7:46 am ---- Just come across this. Car looks good and its always nice to see another 206 rally car being built.
Bit of an underestimate on the costs mind you. Depends what you are building and what events etc your intending on doing with it but for an example of my costs last year:
That doesnt include maintenance costs / damage to the car. Or the cost of the car itself which now at my current build point scares me a bit looking at it but its itro £13,000-16,000 and thats doing it on the cheap!!
Rallying is defo a sponsorship needed sport
#58: Re: 1.6 XS Tarmac Rally Project (alot of pics) Author: Marky234, Location: ShrewsburyPosted: Mon Apr 04, 2011 8:09 am ---- Tarmac cars are slightly cheaper to build due to being able to use track parts.
Forest cars i admit are expensive but it all depends on how competitive you want to be. I'm competiting just for fun so my car isnt going to be a flying machine.
Entry fees depend on the event majority of the rallies round by me are around the £300-400 mark
#59: Re: 1.6 XS Hill Climbing/Sprint Car (alot of pics) Author: Marky234, Location: ShrewsburyPosted: Sat Apr 09, 2011 6:29 am ---- Due to a change in circumstances i have had to change my plans for the car. It will still be a competition car but it will now be a hill climbing/Sprint car. So fully stripped out lightweight car. its cheaper and easier to do lol
#60: Re: 1.6 XS Hill Climbing/Sprint Car (alot of pics) Author: Marky234, Location: ShrewsburyPosted: Wed Apr 20, 2011 6:13 am ---- Going to crack on this friday and get most of the welding done inside the car.
I do have for sale one Sparco Sprint 5 Bucket seat, TRS 6 point harness in red. All brand new still in original packing. Never used. Will sell togerther but will split for the right money. PM me for details. Pics can be seen in the topic.
Both seat and harness are in date so can be used on MSA/FIA events.
