CLASS
3

| This
class is ideal for those who want to put a 'big' engine in place
of the original engine. This is a popular class with very close
fast sideways racing. The cars resemble stadium 'Hot Rods' as they
used to be and to a certain degree, as they are now. The car used
must be a saloon or hatchback and have Rear Wheel Drive. Any front
engined, front wheel drive saloons with a wheelbase of 2300mm or
more may be converted to front engine rear wheel drive. The engine
must be of a minimum of 1421 cc capacity and have 2 valves per cylinder,
or multi-valve engines under 2000cc. There are unlimited tuning
modifications allowed, the engine/gearbox/axle need not be original.
At present there are many popular combinations of body shell &
engines. e.g. RWD Ford Escort Mk I & 2, Sierra, Toyota Starlets,
Talbot Sunbeam, converted FWD Peugeot 206 & 309, all fitted
with one of the following engines: Ford 2.1 & 2.5 Pinto / Vauxhall
