Default 1.0 Turbo hill climb nova, serious bit of kit !!!
never thought i'd see this bugger up for sale, it is RAPID in the hill climb and sprint races we used to do in yorkshire. never competed directly with it, but it held ALL the titles in our class.

Awesome bit of kit that, its actually got a better power to weight ratio than a stage 3 escort cosworth, not bad for a 1 litre nova.

Looks like a proper job

Thats awesome. I love sprint cars. All the hillclimbs are miles away from me so will make for a long day to go to them frequently. The problem with living in the flatlands

As above too any links to some vids of it in action.

The questions on that listing are typical of the dross thats common now on ebay too!
