Corrado 16v Track/Race Project

You local TSR? would be good to have a blether about the car with you at some point

 

Yep in Fife, and up by Perth way a fair bit

 

Car looks good mate.
Is that a 22mm anti-roll bar up front, how you finding the handling?!
Abit of rake would help with turn in.
Did you drive it before you fitted the rear trianglation bars!?
Has the rear axle the standard anti-roll bar in it aswel as the bolt in one?
Sorry for all the questions :-)

Handling is good. Bit of underwater when you get back on the power on exit, but turn in is good. Yeah it's an do ago 22 I think.

Not got the rear beam triangulation on just now as it hits the fuel tank. Waitinging until I put a bag tank in it. Just got the bolt in bar and standard arb in at the moment. 10 minute toe out on the left 0 on the right and -2.5 degrees camber on the rear both sides.

 

what engine /turbo you running and what power torque did it make ?
awesome build

 

Forgot about this car, love it!

 

Offers welcome !

 

Just got rid of my Ibiza, moved on to a radical now, but i i was to do another FWD 2L mod prod sprint car, would seriously consider a corrado as a base vehicle - stiff shell, rear boot compartment that can be bulkheaded for tanks and pumps, and good sized rear wheel wells, lowish roof line, and a rear deck where a rear spoiler might actually do something (which they just dont on hatchbacks)

 

I've ran my race Corrado with both a large adjustable rear wing and the standard spoiler. Balance was much better with std rear spoiler permanently raised and if I was going down the route of a large rear wing again, I'd only want it as part of a well designed full adjustable aero package.

If I was free to do what I want, an adjustable roof spoiler at the top of the tailgate just above the roof-line would be my preferred choice, like the Leon Supercopa's have.

 

Not allowed for sprinting - but a boot lid mounted one is and the corrado is better than a true hatch in that respect
