This the second ESTfield to leave RaceTech's workshop was fitted with an 1800cc BMW engine and BMW gearbox mated to a Lada live rear axle. Otherwise the specification of the car remained unchanged from the first car. The chassis however was now welded in the specially fabricated chassis jig. The owner himself finished off the car and made the windscreen and the weather gear. |
