Check out our first guest car announcement for The Gathering, built right here in the UK
On the surface this looks like a well screwed together Corolla, and it is certainly that. However its beauty is more than just skin deep. The entire build is track focussed, hillclimbs and sprints being the aim. Luckily for you we have a lovely hillclimb for him to show it all in action.
Mechanically the spec is ludicrous, taken back to a bare shell the suspension and handling components got a complete rebuild and re-engineering with the best of breed parts. Body work has been replaced with light weight components for weight saving. Engine wise this is now running a 20v black top 4A-GE, naturally aspirated and pushing out 217bhp through a Ford type 9 box. Combined with the weight saving and other performance parts this is a beast to be reckoned with on any hillclimb.
You can read the full details of the car here : www.speedhunters.com/2017/02/building-an-ae86-to-race/
We can't wait to get it to Shelsley Walsh on Sunday 20th August for it to attack the hill. Don't miss out.
Much more to come, but I'm pretty happy to be starting with this
