RacingPug Pictures

Ok, here are some pics of the new racingPug.

It is completely stripped inside and has a full 10-point OMP cage.

Only 1 seat - it's not the comfiest and I'm not enitrely happy with the mounting - it's ok for now though.

Battery is relocated to the inside which should help the weight distribution:

The sunroof has been removed and an alloy panel bolted in place:

Engine is standard 1360cc TU3S all aluminium. Has a single Solex carb which has apparently been rejetted and a crusty looking Pipercross pancake filter.

Cosmetically, the car is not bad but it its let down by the badly painted bonnet. I can't decide whether to repaint ot or just leave it for the 'rat' look.

So, there he is - Roland, the racingPug. As far as I can tell, he's ready to go. I'll take it down to Kames in March for a good thrash and then decide whether to get it logbooked or tax it and run as road legal.

In the meantime, I'd better do something with the racingMetro.........
