I hear exactly what you are saying hence my post above - we can't respond in a manner timely enough to satisfy some of our potential customers. Please let me make it clear that this isn't a case of "we...

    Hi Guys, As Ben has said above we are primarily a race support and engine development organisation - our Renault work is something we all enjoy and is founded on our success with RS products in world motorsport but it's clear to me that we can't and possibly never will be able to offer the...

    197/200 In Motorsport

    200 road car into race car with decent cage, EPAS, manual box and stock fuel tank we got down to 1030KG. We have got X85 race cars below 1000KG. It all depends on how far you want to go, composite panels, subframes, polycarb windows etc. all reduce weight in a big way beyond the basic strip...

    It just acts as a restrictor so with high inlet manifold vacuum it's not scavenging from the crankcase at an excessive rate.

    1/2L or 1L is fine. UK Motorsport needs 2L to be on the safe side of the scruiteneers.

    13 Row is an entirely sensible size to start with. The end size of the cooler will be determined by position on the car, ambient air flow into the duct, heat rejection into the oil etc. etc. You can never had too big an oil cooler as with a thermostatic plate (or duct tape) you have control over...

    197/200 In Motorsport

    Most of our really serious race cars run dry sumps. The stock sump is fine for slicks use on everything but very long corners i.e. Mallory and a smattering of European circuits. Don't worry about it - if we do a baffle kit it will be because the race cars need it and we'll make it available to...

    197/200 In Motorsport

    Standard road car and X85 runs a modine type oil/water heat exchanger. This is fine for short durations and only really puts a load on the cooling system that's not acceptable in serious use in high ambients with modified engines. However air/oil coolers are easily fitted (we do a kit) and are...
