Default Nickhead's Castle Combe Saloon Championship Car...

The latest project!

I've been toying with the idea of doing the saloon car championship for a few years now and finally decided to go for it!!

We are aiming to compete next year.

I've got a few mates helping out with it on the event days and most importantly in the prep!

Andy - AJ Auto's (mechanic)
Mike- Big Willy's (welder/fabricator, mechanic)
Me - numpty

I'll be dontating the good stuff from my gti so that will be going back to standard

We are using a 1.1 106 shell kindly donated by Andy

Spec will be:

Full weld in OMP cage
Single seat
My bodied 166bhp engine
Rallye box with ATB diff
Poly bushed everything
Satchshift
23mm torsion bars
25mm ARB
Coilovers
Bilstein sport shocks
Wilwood 4 pots

And obviously everything will be built to meet the championship Regs

The shell will be bare by the end of tomorrow and off to mike's for the prep!

I took a few bits out of it today, it was complete when I started:
