Nice recent battle between two Caterhams at Pacific Raceways in the Seattle area.  Are the drivers anyone here?

Introducing the Caterham Seven 420 CUP

Westfield Mega S2000 (Honda S2000-powered model) on throttle bodies.  Great sound.  Not sure about the two-way traffic on that road though

John,

I agree, it’s a great sound, but speeds seems quite irresponsible given narrowness and mix of cars and bicycles

The Caterham 7 - A True Driving Experience

 

 

[JohnCh]

Here is another S2000-powered car on throttle bodies with amazing sound, but this time it's on a closed course so nothing other than pylons are at risk.  Nice to see 

@Davemk1 setting another FTD at an event last month.  Hopefully he starts posting about his autocross exploits this season (hint, hint).  Rumor has it that he's been successfully defending the Se7en's honor against a local Ariel Atom.

Look at that - I'm internet famous!

 

That is my car, with me driving it, at a local autocross event a few weeks back. The parking lot is at a local church and they allow us to run there on some Saturdays when church is not in session. Frankly it's almost too small for a good course but we make the most of it.

 

My car is Honda S2000 powered and has Omex ITB's which add some grunt in the mid range and they make it really fun to drive and give it a fun sound.

 

My main competition is a friend of mine who races an Ariel Atom with a supercharged 2.4L Honda in it. It pulls so damn hard that it's hard to process....and on 13" wide Avon slicks it hooks up in a big way. I beat him on this course by 2.7 seconds on a roughly 52 second course to take FTD. I've raced him 3 times so far this season (with many more days to come no doubt) and set FTD at each event. I don't have the big grunt he has but the handling balance is better and I have to slow less for everything and that's what really counts in autocross.

 

Last season I raced my car 18 days and set FTD 16 times...the other two days I placed second. Westfield makes an awesome car that is very tunable and can be made to handle so very well that it's very easy to drive at the limit. And that it wicked fun.

 

If I end up with more video I'll be sure to share it here.
