Erich Basset

Very cool car 8)
Someone from the UK... Please buy this car so that I can see it at the races ;)

I guess there is no intention of selling this car   :) or did my question offend you , if so , sorry bout that ...

Erich

Hi Erich

No one is offended by your questions!

Sorry for my late answer, I'm very busy at the moment so please bear with me!

For now the car will only be sold as is with the gearbox! If things change I will let you know!!!

Best Regards

"Team Primus" Erich & Anders on Budel tour start 90's :-) from Denmark-Netherlands

Thanks Anders ..let me now .  See you later this year ,(moved close to Helsingborg now)...

Erich

Anders, I guess the chassis is 8.50 approved?

Erich, the gearbox should be quite easy to get rid off. I know at least 3 that is looking for a good, swing axle box with a NA gearing.

-BB-

Yes the chassis is approved for 8.5sec in US and 10sec here in Denmark

Ok , probably driving through Denmark end of this  week/weekend  , is the car in Aalborg now to be seen ???

Reg
Erich

Yes 10 min from Downtown Aalborg

And the engine will be for sale soon, too  8)

Perhaps off topic:

I find this strange. Do Denmark have their own rules not compliant to neither FIA or NHRA? Both say that a car with a original chassi can actually use only a roll bar 45 x 3mm (not a full cage) down to 10.00 - 135 mph. Your car has a original chassi and a full cage and as you say yourselves it is legal down to 8.50. Is it the fact that it does not have bars going forward or something else?

I dont think is that strange  ;) (only its ok to 8.5 in us) The car does not have a full cage but more tube than a roll bar thats why the Danish tech said ok to 10sek

Not sure what pictures you`re looking at Elnef  :)

This is a fully approved by FIA and NHRA 10 sec roll bar:

And here is another one:  http://cal-look.no/lounge/index.php/topic,9284.msg247568.html#msg247568

[attachment=2]

If you want to go as fast as 10.00 with only a roll bar is a another question. But you can... in Norway, Sweden, USA and almost every other country where they use the FIA and NHRA rule book.

Kalle, do you want to buy the car?

John, what is a full rollcage then? From the pics it looks to me that it is a full one. Does it not have the crossbar in the roof?

If I wanted a race car I would consider the Silver Bugget. I felt that the certification was a bit too important to be forgotten and if the seller want me to delete please let me know. At least the thread was bumped to the top again. As mentioned earlier, a nice car for a nice price and I know that Sonic have some really interesting plans.

to close this about roll cage i have the same in my car( the jägermeister bug) and it is cert to 8,5 sec
so it is a matter of finding all the points in the rulebook and point it out and i am shure i will pass 8,5 aswell her in europe.

have a good day.

if your interestet in the car call anders or rasmus they are normaly nice guys  ;D  ;D ;D

Hi everyone

I think it's good that this is mention as a potentiale problem, but how big is the problem?
Well to be honest it's not that big issue if you ask me!I was thinking about this when I made the sales topic, but I came to the conclusion that i want to be as honest as possible and I hope that others would be the same.
The roll gage is made of 1 5/8" 41.2mm tubes and all you need here in Denmark is to weld some more tubes in, from the sides at the gage and out to the front of the car, to protect the legs! Also a cross at the top of the gage is maybe needed! I don't know if this is needed for approval in your country!

I think Mr Elnef can give better information!

Thanks

Theree is no problem wtih this car its nice fast and light  ;)

Yes a roll bar has to be 45*3 and Kalle thanks for the photo but this car does not have a roll bar so why talk about this

This car has what I will call a cage but not full cage in 1 5/8" = 41,2mm so it is in some sort of grey zone but the Danish tech say ok to 10sec because of all the tube there is in it

If you want this car to be legal down to 8,5sec you have to put some more tube in it
It need a crossbar in the roof and some more forward and backward because of the lenght of the 2 (they are more than76,2cm) there has to be 4
And I am not sure but I think it also has to have a cross in the doors
 

Some modifications might be made down the line , (as I understand ).. would be interesting to see the car , please send tlf# to me if you plan to be at home during the weekend Anders /or somebody !  (my plan was never to go from a novice to pro in one night  :D )
My # is +46721749800

Erich

this roll bar on the pictures is for 10,9 and not faster as far as i know
Udo

Thanks Elnef for clarifying this!

If you're aiming for the 8's I would do these extra protection anyway, better safe than sorry!
If you're aiming for the low 10's or high 9's it's possible that it's not a problem at all, I only mentioned this because it would be a shame if a new owner would run into the same problems like Us here in DK!
And Rasmus didn't wanted to take the discussion with the apporval guys at that point, because he was "only" aiming for the high 10's or low 11's! So 10sec approval rollgage certification was good enough for him, thats all.

If you want to make you own personal theme, then the "Bulldog" theme is not painted on the car, but it's wrapped on folie and can be removed if you want this, but be aware of this might damaged the paint a little bit, but then you only need to put your own personal theme wrapped on folie, then you would be fine again. The quick way would be to remove the "Bulldog" text!

As Lance the previous owner mentioned! This car launch and drive straight as an arrow with his turbo setup! And I know Rasmus have been really positive about the car handling.

A pictures (from when it was Lance's ownership) of the roll gage, note that the side to side bar behind the seat have been modified, now it have a small curve backwards for more legspace up front.
Thanks

Overall the car is really nice, but of course after years of use it have some "things" here and there! Don't expect a showcar but basically a nice car.

Thanks

Of course they approved your roll gage! they knew what would happen  :P
They knew that you wouldn't drive that fast!

Just look what happened  ;D

***PENDING****

Good its pending,hope to  see it back out soon :)

maybe we need a cage discussion in pure racing section as it does seem different countries have different rules,and it would proberly help people when buying a car from a different country?


cheers richie

Sold !
