Do a search for Sun International. This has been discussed in the past.

Nothing beats the real thing, btw.

The Rover powered cars are much better balanced than the ITR powered cars and weigh less.

I have not driven the Sun car, but lets just say that the Lotus 190S will run circles around most cars on the road including the S2000.

ummmm

Stock 190S motor - 190hp
ITR motor - 200hp in this car or close to it

Not much difference, in my mind.

I believe the stock 190S is approx. 1400-1500lbs. what is the weight of the Sun car?
