Radbourne Racing - info needed

[16v_paddy]

Does anyone have some information on Radbourne Racing?

I'm looking at buying a Williams that has been "fettled" by them from new.
As far a I can tell from google etc, they were a renault dealer that also tuned cars up so to speak.

I've only been able to find some info on work they carried out on an R5 GTT.

The car I'm looking at has been tuned by them but the guy doesn't know exactly whats been done to it engine wise. The previous owner claimed 200bhp but this guy says the previous owner was talking b****cks but it's definately a lot faster than his 2 previous williams.

What I'm after is any sort of information on what work they would have done to the engine to squeeze more performance from it. The guy hasn't had it on a RR either as he wasn't really interested in power figures etc, just the drive :approve:. He's claiming it's had a remap and he's guessing the power is somewhere between 170 and 180 bhp :S

Is this sort of power achievable from just a remap??
Or would Radbourne Racing have been playing with the internals as well??

I also found on google that radbourne racing, as a business was wound up and no longer trading :S
So would r-sport be able to tell me what would have been done to this williams?

Companies House would suggest that Radbourne Racing Limited is based in Kingston and K-Sport Limited is based in Wimbledon, the directors of the two companies are entirely different ...
