Prob a smidge over 500kgs for a typical Caterham these days.

Wonder how it will put that kind of power down on anything but billiard smooth tarmac.

There was a turboed JPE a few years back that was 2l Vauxhall that was done by Courteny, it was 350bhp or something crazy and was deemed nigh on impossible to drive but maybe more down to the power delivery of the turbo. The person who bought the car went t great expense to "put it back to the way it should be".

Aero sorted

Hopefully get her weighed soon. The mag wheels might help keep weight down....
