Caterham Tunalight R600!
(click above for car spec)

*** This is a NEW Caterham Spec ***

This week we go spec racing with a specially commissioned Tuna edition of the classic British Caterham sports car!  Tested and tuna'd by the boys at our very own Fishtank Motorsports secret facility (located at 123 Pebbly Beach Industrial Park, between SeaWeed Castle and the Bubbling Treasure Chest), this excellent package is based on the Caterham Seven Fireblade and though it is heftier than the base model it is still surprisingly agile due to the upgraded suspension package and has a nice increase in power to boot.

The new Tunalight R600 has been tuned even more than the previous R543 spec, it is a good 66kg lighter and has extensive engine modifications including the addition of a Supercharger to significantly boost power / torque over the previous spec!

I had a blast with this spec. Also enjoyed the track, much more than I had anticipated I would. To me the elevation changes made it as fun as it was challenging. Another good turnout as well. Thanks Feldynn for putting it together for all of us and thanks to my competitors for the goos times.
