DeanB Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Alex that is the engine I was thinking of - I know 3 cylinders would put some people off but I bet they sound good - different but good - and 140 reliable bhp is plenty. Simon you are probably right about the fun police. Perhaps by offering a track only car without all that stuff that people could 'convert' to road use it might be possible to get round the rules. Or engineer the cars so that those components could easily be removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We saw the 1.6ecoboost in an Elsie the other year at donington lotus festival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanP Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 It amazes me that caterham can still produce the 7, given all the crash regulations. I guess low production numbers are not cumulative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to remember it was 1000 annual per manufacturer across Europe... though I could be making that up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
