PSR Reynard Chassis, 2 litre 16 valve engine |
| Technical: |
It is a 'slicks and wings' formula and, with the power
of the Vauxhall 2 litre 16 valve engine, the performance
of the 170bhp cars is similar to Formula 3,generating
170bhp and delivering a top speed of 160mph. The engines
are taken straight from the production line and then sealed
and maintained by a specialist company. This prevents
any modification by the individual teams and thus ensures
virtually identical performance. . With a sole chassis
manufacturer, no engine tuning allowed, 'control' tyres
from Bridgestone and strict controls on modifications,
the formula has rapidly grown to become a major step in
a young driver's career. |
| Best Memory: |
First European race at Knutstorp in Sweden... my first
ever European race victory |
| Worst Memory: |
Spa, European Series ( Support race for Belgium GP).
Sitting in 6 place, "I was tapped from behind by
Kenny Brack, and sent into a spin. Just as I selected
1st gear to set off again when Alain Plasch spun after
spotting me. The back of Alain's car hit the front of
mine.. a pretty horrific looking crash. We both walked
away. Back home, I discovered I had a broken leg after
a visit to the local doctor! |
