Nice replica, specs please!!

What circuit is that? The first and second pics look like the hairpin at Mallory Park apart from the colour of the kerbs.

Yes Mallory Park, the PPC track day. I did it last year in a pretty standard Alfa 75 and I felt I could of gone way better than the car, but this time the 155 was better than me, it's a great bit of kit, it's more than a few nice stickers that's for sure. Every mod helps, there's no mods for mods sake. from the 166 brakes to the quick shift gear box it's a sorted car. Not even had a stage one weight reduction either as it has backl seats and spare wheel!! if I gutted the car it would be even better, it's not fast, but it kills it on the corners on track .

Thought so, I spent a lot of time over at Mallory as I grew up just down the road in Hinckley. One of the pics in my garage is up at the hairpin (poor quality as its pre digital cameras) on the AROC track day.
Spent the day trying to rip the front tyre off at the hairpin, whilst wearing out a set of pads and getting 7mpg . Ahh the good old days.
