Jason Plato Posted September 19, 2006 Author Share Posted September 19, 2006 I was trying singles for size this weekend . my belly or height isnt the issue ( I was surprised )- its the width of my shoulders . Now I havent got particularly big shoulders but some of them single seaters are only made for racing snakes. and a jedi just scares me !!!! . Mt feet were 10" in front of the leading edge of the front tyres now thats a bit silly isnt it. Then others had bellcranks and wishbones right next to your knees, some are a realy poor design and I would never be happy driving one flat out thru the dip towards the railway sleepers at Shelsley If your serious about a dual drive - lets talk !

DSL Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Dave, I know what you mean regarding bell cranks & bolts protruding into the leg area & lack of frontal crash protection in general is rather worrying *eek* Make you appreciate just how safe the Seven is in a front ender Definately interested in the single seater thing. When Brodie & Jez go down that route I will have no one to play with ☹️ ☹️, but looking at that for the year after next, unless a bargin comes along or you fancy getting one to do a few experimental outings next year 🤔 Got to make sure its competative with whatever Brodie & Jez go for, as I really need to beat Brodie fair & square one day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSL Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Gambo, and do you think that would change if we had one 🤔 😬 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambo Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 aye that'll be little Dave. Daz, I'm sure you would drive them them well My point was that if you are looking foro a competetive car, do not worry about having a big power busa or too stressed an engine as It's not really needed. they really do go like Bastrads.

DSL Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Gambo, would agree with you to a point about not needing a monster engine, but it does somewhat depend on the championship you enter, there are a lot of quick boys with powerful cars around at the better events. Depends if you want an easy life, or wish to really test yourself against the best 😬 That & the fact I happen to have 2/3rds of a 1400cc busa motor left 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
