Okrasa bug update


Gentlemen, some trackside pics at lastthe bug has impressed its deck lid shape into the memory banks of some unexpected conquests
even if it is coming from my usually modest self it is well ahead of where i expected it to be at this early stage of things, i was expecting the 'mechanical' head to be on for the first season of gauge watching and bits falling off, but i am able to get the 'driver' head on and mix the grid up a bit, the bug was all over the hotrod in the pic', which is multi valve vauxhall (GM) powered, ecotech? and weighs next to nothing, i got along side at one point but i needed more revs than i'de set on the limiter, as the motor is (was) not broken in fully, so i stayed put and also kept the yellow midget behind, another quick lightweight car, these all on 9" slicks by the way, i'm still on budget street tyres, so it looks bad for these guys when the bug gets it soft slicks next month, after I've paid the taxman of course.
I'll post up how it gets on...

Great pics! What watercooled (judging from the large vents in front hood) POS engine do you run?

Great Pics !

Looks like that POS front suspension is working for you as well.

Please post more pics and experiences as they come
