SUMO POWER TAKE DELIVERY OF THE TOYOTA GT86

"To our knowledge, this is the first GT86 in Europe, and we are proud to welcome it to the Sumo Power family."



I like
“The engine is certainly the first place we will look as it’s naturally aspirated and we will be keen to see what potential it has. It’s certainly crying out for a turbo kit, but I quite like the idea of a supercharged conversion, but equally we're interested to see what it can do in NA form.

"The engine appears to sit low in the bay which is good news for handling but also gives scope for any modifications. Also I am impressed with the stock radiator position - it's V-mounted and has a nice pair of large fans. Clearly it is ready for some hard work on track which is unusual in a road car.”

street ones probably but there are a few privately entered 86 (non Gazoo Racing) in the VLN races.

Nice find. They are located 80 miles away from where I live, but I'm tempted to go down there today just to have a nose.
