Roll on next week
We have a track day at Cadwell next week so we have been preparing the kit cars over the last couple of weeks, including dynoeing, suspension set up
and corner weighting this morning. Both are finally ready so i took a couple of pics with my iphone. Both are Rotary powered, the Tiger (black)
one is RX8 powered, the stylus is rx7 turbo powered.
Roll on next week
Both of them look the nuts 
Whats with that exhaust on the tiger

The tiger looks like something off Mad Max, don't forget the obligatory video's for our entertainment
Batmans 7 ??
NICE
Holy Smoke, Robin
Batman's Trackday special!!
we did actually say if Batman had a 7 style car, it would look like this
Naturally aspirated Rotaries are very loud, often too loud for track with a 7 style exhaust so it has been fitted with an aftermarket RX8 silencer
and it was the only place it would fit.............
Brilliant . Love it . "If you cant hide it make a feature of it" as my old man would say.

Last time i saw the cars, the tiger had just dumped it's fuel and you'd just blown your engine. I hope you have better luck this time. ( i came to buy the seats )
Hi, I remember it well. That was the first outing for the tiger, the fuel tank leaked where the pump assembly dropped in the top, we didn't know as it was the first time we filled it up and as its not road legal, we couldn't test it! Mine blew due to a weak coil and it detonated but i built a new engine and treated to it to new coils and some other little treats. She performed well on the dyno last week so fingers crossed, all will good ....
really looking forward to the video(s).
That Tiger looks ama..Zing!
that looks familiar - saw you at Rotorstock, Santa Pod last year - see this thread.... Good luck at Cadwell!

thank you for that
that looks tight for room

Hi
yes it is a squeeze, but as said the block itself is very small. The gear box is quite big and the engine has been set very far back, to give you an
idea, the prop is only 14 inches long! also the tunnel was made wider. The engine is very short and if the stock manifold was replaced with throttle
bodies it would create a lot more room.
It is or should i say was an avon body.
is it me or is the rear wing slightly on the wee ?
thats the only unusual thing i noticed ........
That 7 looks like it's wearing a Gimp Suit
Either that or it looks ruddy evil!
