Just having a look on Ebay and noticed Britek Motorsport are clearing out a heap of stuff on there including a full engine dyno room and 2x Fiesta JWRC Cars. $300k for the 2 Fiestas - good price for a daily driver?

The fiestas are nice but I would prefer these at the same cost. |

Britek closed down pretty much, still own the V8 licences but he's basically merged with SBR

Yeah cause brighty couldn't organise a .... well you know what I mean. And he has ripped off too many people in the industry and now everyone knows his caper so he can't get away with it anymore so closing down was he's only option.
He should of stayed away IMO. He was better off getting paid to drive cars not trying to run his own team.

They sure did, a mate had one a few years back, they go well for what they are. The price is in the upper rage so he must have spent a bit. http://www.redbookasiapacific.com/cs...&family=WR500Z |
