Guest Terry Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 (edited) A few weeks ago I mentioned on this forum that I was going to the UK for the International Caterham Dealers Meeting to be held at the new Caterham CTI facility. Included on the agenda was a trip to the Caterham F1 Factory and a full day at Snetterton, with three Sevens, a SuperSport, CSR, R400 and of course the amazing SP300R. Out of the 30 of us at the Dealer's Meeting, 8 of us were permitted to drive the SP which in real terms is a Le Mans Sports Prototype LMP2 My stint in the car came right after the lunch break. (A full article will apear in "Low Flying" in the next few months. At present I am still in the UK and am unable to upload any photos. (watch this space) Meanwhile I have attached a link to the Autocars test of the SP300R [/url] Edited April 2, 2012 by Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Terry Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 The car is truly amazing. Snetterton doesn't have a long enough straight to run the car flat in 6th but I did have it on the limiter in 5th, which I guess is about 160mph. The car is super planted, with staggering brakes, fabulous gearbox and lightening-fast steering. My only criticism is the car feels underpowered for the chassis; however I'm sure that can be addressed very easily with some changes to the ECU. I loved this car and it is our plan to bring one to Canada ASAP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
