in the 90s someone built a pro street kitten for drag racing.might have been mr beardmore.
then promptly wiped the smiles off the aston martin boys at the brighton speed trials.

Yup that V8 kitten was a Beardmore creation. Saw it run at the Brighton Speed Trials. Was fantastic!
Apparently he sold it to a really enthusiastic guy last year, so it might be out again some time?

Whoa! V12 Kitten!! Excellent ;D ;D. There used to be a purple Kitten bombing around my way a couple of years ago with something loud under the bonnet - not seen it for a while though!

then I suspect this is the car. The bloke mentions that it had a V8 in before and was featured in Street machine ;D and he only bought it last year. so it all seems to fit! Well maybe

mental!
I remember reading the Beardmore's build of the V8 kitten some time ago. good to see it's still on the go & in an even more insane guise.
