No that isn't my car I just found the pictures. From the translation on the site it seems like he went in to hot in a corner let off and lost it.

 

I was just curious how light they did get the car with all that dieting.

The C-West S2000 is ~2100 lbs, but not as gutted.

It would be interesting to see how much weight can be removed from the floors and and the rear quarters when replaced with composite.

 

A tubular frame is amazing but how much would that cost to make I would love to do this

 

considering its a frame, it doesnt look that bad, should be able to be repaired

 

That thing looks crazy wide!

 

This thing is awesome

 

@PWL: thats something I wanna build someday too.
whats chasis did you use and what other parts to get it moving?

 

PWL's car looks like lotus super seven....
how much does your car weigh??

 

The car is a MNR Vortx RT+ you can read about it here.

Like I said, the weight of the car with a full tank of fuel is 690 KG (1521 lbs) = very fun

I have used the following S2000 parts:

Engine
Gearbox
Complete wire harness
Instruments
Steering column (remember to get the keys)
Propshaft (modified)
Header (modified)

The best thing to do is to find a damaged S2000 to get the parts from.

Most other parts can you get from MNR.

I have had to find the following things my self:

AEM EMS
RED drysump (not needed, but good for a peace of mind)
Willwood brakes
Racing battery
+ a 1000 little parts

Here are a couple pictures of the drysump if anybody wonders how it looks




No comments about the excessive use of liquid gasket please, I know it is way too much and potentially can be dangerous.

PWL, that looks like A LOT of fun!
