Hallo at all from Austria!

Please don´t care about my nick, they gave it to me because of my cars lay out, don´t know why

Will try to answer with my bad english your common questions.

The body kid´s driven by Gabat racing team (the cars shown on the pictures) are "home made" at Gabat in Carbon or GFK, however you want.
The engines are real 2 Liters and I myself own the absolute ident specification of Mr. Gabat himselfe with poweroutput till 729 DIN HP (not BHP like known from GB), but i recognized that having a engine with this power and being able to drive it are big differences and so I "only" drive with apr. 550 HP.

The reliability of Gabat´s Engines is absolutly unbeliveable - he is not cheap but I don´t wanted to be cheap, I wanted to be reliable and fast, realy fast.

I send you some links to look about, hope you could understand my english and will answer some questions if there are one left

On the gabat homepage there´s a video for download I think with a start sequents on wet conditions (zero to 150km/h on wet tarmac)

www.gabat-tuning.at (at the moment only in german - will translate )


greats
RS

P.S.: Congratulations to the lot of pretty cosies on this page and there owners, i know what a lot of work stucks behind to built those babys!!!

@all who asked:

Normaly nobody gives engine spec because a lot of work and damaged engines have gone till we had this performance but I will try a little bit:

2 Liter bolted through, a couple of titan parts, 4 Jet Fuel System mapped by Gabat, DIN HP up to 810 without NO² (useing it is possible), reliability tested for 15 rounds at the austrian A1 ex Formular1 circuit.

My boy has a weight of 1124kg at the moment and was messured with 9,92 sec from 0 to 200km/h, I drive the engine for about 2 seasons without opening and with not any problem, that about reliability of Cosworth engines
Tried this with an Lancia Integrale sedici before a lot of smoke for more then one time was the result, also a lot of broken gearboxes.

Our bigbanger, the white one with red lights, is the only 2,5 Liter, sounds like a bulldozer with no rev´s at the engine but a lot of torque

It took 1.640 hours of work of myselfe to built my car up from a rallycross wrack and there are some other hours at GABAT Tuning (a lot of thanks) to finish it. We all have dog engagement sequential gearboxes, I prefer 5 speed for pylone racing, the other go on 6 speed.
A lot of the used parts have been manufactured at Gabat himselfe, also a lot (like the gearboxes, are from GB (Quaife)

I´m sure some of your cars I have seen at the pictures have also been a lot of work, there are some realy pretty one in show condition. Would be a realy nice hobby......but the money.....

Wish a lot of fun with the porsche killers..
