Here in NZ we have a series that is supposed to be a cheap introductory series and they are using the SSangyong Action UTEs. (pick-ups). I think that is Mercedes engines and they were just an invitation team for the event. How cheap? I don't know because they are running sequential gearboxes and I have no idea what additional mods are allowed.I am curious Frans, why are there cars with engine capacities greater than 2.0 lit, racing in the Group A 0-2000 class (although I see they are really not competitive based on where they finished)?
Or is there another measure that is not immediately obvious - power/weight?
Here (MSCA sprint series) there are 2 classes for 0-2000cc cars - pre and post 1985 (classic vs modern).
This info from WIKI.
The series features a field of slightly modified Actyons with identical drive trains, allowing driver ability to determine race outcomes. The racing Actyons featured a 2.3 litre petrol engine by Mercedes-Benz mated to a locally sourced four speed sequential gearbox and an open differential. The suspension was lowered to improve handling and a full protective rollcage and harnesses were installed.
I don't think they would have featured in the next class.
