Badder Neutral Newbie September 30, 2011 Share September 30, 2011 no windscreen so (unless things have changed recently) cant be used on roads in singapore if you want a single seater fun - just import one - they are dirt cheap. you can get a nice Dallara F3 car for 25k or a FJ car for as little as 5k (1k to import) for track time you can join me at private track day (just me in an F3 car) at PG track, S$250/hour (whole track) from Feb 2012 ....once you go single seat - you will never think of a road car again as anything more than a massive compromise Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Safe ride Cheers 2.8 sec in an open car, the driver will feel like its 1.4 (half of 2.8)..... his head will be thrown backward (if there's no headrest to restrain it) and end up his eyes looking striaght into the sky.... last week my kart (with new more powerful engine) gave me 4 sec sprint and that's what happened.... later i learned to dart my head forward and downward before kicking the accelerator down (like a race bike rider) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
