Just a little 204bhp SC on PMO carbs. It has 964 cams so revs a little higher, but probably doesn't make much more power. The carbs are there just to make it sound cool and spit fire :oops: :)

The underseal is gone and the bonnet is ali, so it's a bit lighter - about a tonne.

A slipper in the back and well-used tyres mean it's cracking fun on a quickish circuit like Goodwood.

Neil Harvey gave us the suspension settings they use on their SC race cars, which is why it's all rather low and camber-y.

Even I can worry GT3s in it at tight circuits, Paul drives round the outside of them on opposite lock in the wet. :)

It's owned by a very decent chap who also has a PS road car and it only really does track miles - 6,000 of them in the last few years. He lets us borrow it back for the odd day out whilst we're putting together something else for our use!
