Cup Racers

[Seedy172]

I've seen a couple, and there not exactly slow. Just wondered what the main differences where over a more Standard Car! Also, what's the difference between a 172 Cup chassis over a FF?

Wait for it....

cup racers are lighter have have around 190-200bhp and that gearbox i cant spell lol

0-100mph with 180bhp and 900kg weight, that sadev must work wonders! knocking 7secs off the standard time

 

[Seedy172]

Sadev?

the makers of the sequential box mate.

 

[Seedy172]

Oh, Now it makes sense lol!! What sort of Induction do they use?

Its a combination of an 80MS WOT upshift and sticky slicks coupled with a proper LSD allowing you to launch one with zero wheel spin.

The cups are nearer 200bhp in reality as well.

cone filter where the battery would be on a standard car, no 90 degree bend, cold air vent in headlight giving direct air to filter

afaik its a 100% standard engine, supersprint race system (not sure if they run cats or not) and a standalone management?

The engines are build by Oreca from selected components i.e. they are standard but some engines are more standard than others ;-) They have a single cat and run a Magneti Marelli ECU and Dash/Logger.
