    That name still gives me nightmares

    Is great to see this car getting further and further along

    Re: Building a Corsa C C20XE Rally Car

    In an attempt to save weight we scrapped the original heater/air distribtion housing as it's very heavy - to be replace by this little heater/blower






    It's tiny and will supply warm air to the Heated screen we have on order - best to be safe than sorry - It no good having all this fancy equipement if you cant see where your going !!!


    Hydraulic handbrake plumbed in - Just need to extend the lever to be in easy reach






    Drivers carbon fibre foot tray in positition - just need a liittle tweeking to fit snug

    Awesome Dave !

    Is the heater box a custom thing ? can think of a few cars that I know of that need something like that.

    Corsa rally car

    Re: Building a Corsa C C20XE Rally Car

    I've got the same one fitted in my rally car, does a great job, alot more powerful than it's size makes you think. Would recommend the company to anyone the guy who runs it is a very good chap. I think he's called Adam.

    easy to get hold of martin...only problem is he needs to know who you are, im down at his atleast once or twice a month. did see the millington block, suprised at how thin the sleeves were though for the bores. will be nice to see how it goes when martin starts it.
