R1 V8 Powered Lola F3 Hillclimb Car
filed in News on Feb.05, 2009
Working with TKD Engineering, RS have manufactured a full tapered exhaust system for their R1 V8 Powered Lola F3 Chassis.
The 2.0 litre V8 engine has been manufactured by TKD Engineering and mounted in the back of a Lola F3 Chassis. The engine features x2 R1 Motorcycle cylinders mounted to a custom cast & machined block and will produce 400 BHP in it current specfication. Using a World Superbike tapered exhaust system as a template, Shane painstakingly fabricated a full system and silencers, which at times was challenging to actually fit withing the refines of the Lola bodywork/chassis. Retaining the tuned lengths and diameters from the WSB system, merged collectors were fabricated to produce the 4 into 2 into 1 Twin system with tension retaining springs.
Watch out for this painstakingly engineered Hillclimb Projectile in 2009!!
