Westfield Megabusa Build & Race Diary

For 2008, the megabusa has been entered in the SEMSEC (South East Motor Sport Enthusiasts Club) race series. So we now have a new website section 'Racing' to track the progress!

It was a turbulent 2007. From the idea starting in May, the car was unofficially 'finished' on September 3rd, exactly 23 days after the kit arrived, taking a total of 139 hours, 216 man-hours. Of course, cars like this have a habit of never being finished - a new carbon dash, datalogger and computer install were the first round of upgrades. Following 2 disasterous track days, the engine ran dry and blew a main bearing resulting in me buying a new engine, sump, pump and tank.

August 25 2008 - New Garage!
The move to the new garage has been completed, the new luxury carpeted workshop awaits! I reckon i should have a chance to do the small fiddly jobs that got neglected before.

I have completed the inner ducting, cut a new hole in the top of the nosecone, half fitted the gauges. Need the engine now!
