Re: Racing sierra cosworth

Hi at last after one and a half year of working on the car we went to race ,before this it was dyno setup time at PLEX TUNING ,on a Rototest dynamometer.The new engine with the big turbo is a beast ,it made 468 bhp at i,6 bar turbo pressure,but to be safe(the car had only 300km run in)we lowererd it to 400 bhp and 45 kg torque.It works with a ViPEC c.p.u. and direct ignition.The turbo suprisingly spools at 3200 rpm and the car behaves like a big cc atmo engine and the new 4.4cwp(was 4,8) reduses wheelspin and makes the car easier to drive.
At the race some teething problems (brocken fanbelt on sarurday practice and a broken gear lever on the first leg of the race) and the lack of driving the car -from the dyno tothe staring line in one day-didnt let me do anything better than a fourth in class.Anyway the car has very huge potential and the driver need some time and much practice to drive fast again
