Our car's first race,
at the Tallinn City Circuit
in September 2001.

We came second in the
2000cc unrestricted class.








Some pictures from
the Raadi speed test
in September 2001






Built during 2001 by Racetech Ltd

This is a car we built to demonstrate the racing potential of the chassis and the Lada donor.
The mechanicals are all Lada but:
The 1600cc engine is tuned to give 154 bhp,
there are disc brakes fitted to the Lada rear axle,
a 5 speed straight-cut racing gearbox is fitted.

Otherwise the car is quite standard and weighs in at 620 kg unladen.

Here you will find the results of the Raadi speed test organised in Tartu in September 2001. Our class-winning 1/4 mile time was 13.56 secs.

A subsequent performance test on the Pärnu circuit revealed a 0-100 km/h time of 4.3 secs.
