Have you decided to go with 15" wheels now instead of the standard 16" wheels?

Nick

 

[750MC]

Hi Nick, yes that's correct, after evaluating the cost saving on 15" tyres and the set-up benefits of using a smaller wheel, we are now mandating a 15" rim.

£5k.

Apparently.

£1.2k of suspension, £1k ECU, £500 wheels & tyres, £??? 6 point cage... I guess they figure a Cat D donor car (I say "donor car" in the loosest way possible!)

1k ecu???

 

[tom172cup]

1k ecu???

You have to run a ktecs gen90 ecu

 

[Chi]

Is that like an.entry fee lol

 

[Mr R.]

You have to run a ktecs gen90 ecu

And there Spax coilovers.

If you're starting with nothing and never raced before, make the initial startup budget somewhere between £7-£8000 realistically.

It will be good to have you with us. We have nearly reached the limit for the discounted tyres already! We will also have some other great announcements for the series soon.

The control ECU and Suspension are both £849 + VAT (£1018.80)

 

[Adam G]

Without getting into any arguments, as I'm not posting this to start one. I just think that 5k is VERY optimistic. I think 6k is more realistic really, for the benefit of anyone considering this. It's cost me almost 2k to convert mine to just basic MSA regs. Cage, seat, seat mount, harness, fire ext, cutoff etc. Unless you have a mate with all the gear in a shed of course.

 

[Tony Hunter]

Glad you've gone to 15's. Did say in another thread that's what you should do because of costs. Good luck with the series.

Wouldn't mind doing one as an invitation car.

I'm assuming there are discounted prices available to those with confirmed entries, because the prices on K-Tec's website are different to those being quoted in here.

Control suspension is less than a fiver shy of £1200
ECU is over £50 more than what was mentioned earlier


Besides for those who are seriously interested I'm sure the full regulations cover everything in detail so I don't think many of us are being particularly helpful in asking about things like exhausts ("cheap" doesn't fit in with Renault OEM, and "use whatever you want" doesn't fit with "control" so I'm sure by the time people have a few nose/tail bumps they'll be a K-Tec control exhaust in the mix too) or donor car prices.


Nevertheless it still has the potential to be fair motorsport at good circuits with relatively low costs.

 

[Adam G]

As a form of motorsport where everybody is on a pretty even footing, then the series should do well. The cost is still pretty low as stated and I wish everybody good luck with it. I just posted the figures, because I thought that if anybody wanted to crack on with it, they may have a bit of a shock.
