Re: Dodge Dart 273 upgrades

Hi Gents, well the Dart survived the Birkett 6 hour race and was running well when the team withdrew after one car written off and another damaged. I have to say that as this was my first drive in the car I wasn't sure what to expect but it really was nice to drive aside from not having rain tyres a...

Re: Dodge Dart 273 upgrades

Thanks I'm really pleased with it and now scouring the web for any parts that might help it along a bit. It appears that it is also eligible for the pre 66 Touring cars and they have lots of races in Europe at good circuits. Maybe a good place to start is to find another engine and get that one prep...

Re: Dodge Dart 273 upgrades

Hi Everyone.
well after a long delay (caused by me) I now have the car all paid for and collect it Tuesday so I will be having a good look over it.
I will be racing it at the Birkett relay race at Silverstone on Oct 27th/28th
As I said before any info on upgrades will be really useful.
Cheers
Chris

Re: Dodge Dart 273 upgrades

That's the one. I've not driven it yet but it appears that it holds it's own on the circuit. The good thing about the regulations is that the competition is equally "nobbled" and restricted with developments. When I do take delivery of the car I will have a good/better idea of what the cur...

Re: Dodge Dart 273 upgrades

Hi Guys, I'm just back from Silverstone and amazed at all the info and responses I really do appreciate it. I will have a read and try to digest what's been said. I should point out that I will push the rules and regulations as far as I can but I can't do any cheating, it's more fun to get somewhere...

Re: Dodge Dart 273 upgrades

Hi There,

Re: Dodge Dart 273 upgrades

Thanks Martin,
I appreciate the help.
I know that the engine would have to be exactly the same externally but I think internals are pretty free. Obviously I will make sure of the rules before any build takes place.
Cheers
