Cool, congrats on your feature!

Wow, cool! I don't even know what magazine article that would have been! This car has been like this since around 2011, but evolved a lot in the details.

Thank you! RIP my dad, who showed me how to work on cars and have fun with them ❤️

It's not for everyone, that's for sure.

@@VintageClassicSpecialist Cool response.

I run it in modified. It's not SCCA.

@@VintageClassicSpecialist Thank You !!

Thanks! Tires are 195/50/16 front and 205/50/16 rear. Front beam is 4" narrow.

It's got CB performance disk brakes front and back

Wow, awesome driving, and the car sounds great and looks pretty dialed in! I've got some videos of the 55 on my personal channel on YT, here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Q9cz165ktrY.htmlsi=e22lp9SeJeI-YZUE for example.

Btw, the car is still swing axle. It has tons and tons of rear traction, I think the LSD helps and 3.5 deg camber plus the wide R888R tires. The car understeers mid corner, so I added the rear bar to see if I could get it more neutral or more toward oversteer.

@@VintageClassicSpecialist Yep...even with a 1300cc mine was lighting up the inside rear wheel before I put Quaife ATB diff in it (we have to run on Dunlop historic treaded crossply tires, so the fronts are 120mm and the rears are 130mm!). I've gone with custom made adjustable bars both ends, Sway Bar up front and a thick Z-bar on the rear. A Formula Vee manufacturer built mine and we may try a zero-roll rear end at some point but in the meantime i'm trying something which'll have a similar effect, which is a much stiffer Z-bar to get MORE body roll at the back, it'll start lifting the inside front wheel so we'll have to take it testing and see where we are regarding balance and get it dialled in again. The biggest improvement came from double adjustable motorsport dampers, these were custom made for my car in the UK, (expensive!) but as soon as I fitted these it didn't feel or handle like a beetle anymore asit really slows the weight transfer. Cars currently in bits as its way too heavy for my 1300cc class (which is basically me and 5 Mini Coopers) It'll be road legal and around 1310lbs when finished. Its run a 15:08@88mph so with the changes it should be around a 14:6@92mph on the 1/4, not bad for 126hp

Awesome man, I love it! 👏👏👏
