lotus34 3 Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 Even though my own Caterham 7 race car could comfortably win a round of the Lotus Cup in outright pace (still hard to believe when you see an old 7 parked next to a V6 CupR!) they really don't crash half as well. I would rather race in the Lotus Cup but the costs are a significant step up over Caterham racing which remains immense fun and relatively affordable. What series do you race in? I've see the R300 series and those are quick, but I wouldn't say that they would comfortably beat a CupR, it would certainly be a close race though! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Pits 4,410 Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 CSCC Mag 7s, the top cars are running over 300bhp Duratecs. My car is a 2 litre K-series R500 'Evo' good for 250bhp which puts it towards the front of the mid-field! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
