It basically is an FA20 with bigger holes. It’s a bigger bore with the same stroke. It shouldn’t be any heavier. |

Fair enough, that's a good point. I think it might be a *bit* heavier if some of the rumors are to be believed with respect to some active safety features they're adding, though hopefully the power-to-weight ratio is kept as is.

Here's hoping the second generation captures some of that refinement. I'm definitely planning on test driving one, at the very least.

Yeah, I had to extend the arms on my first t-rex for better handling.

But the Trex had the bullet proof 6 speed, the 5 speed in the Allosaurus was made of glass
But, putting the Rex 6 speed into an Allosaurus was a popular modification back in the day Plus, with the Allosaurus weighing much much less than the Trex, the Allosaurus was much cheaper to run, the Rex spent way to much time in the pits getting new brakes and tyres I remember watching a well setup Allosaurus lapping the larger and more powerfull Trex at Bathurst, watching it overtaking the Rex, mid corner, on a wet track was a beautiful thing to watch ......

I'm actually encouraged by reports that it'll only have 217hp. That would kind of imply minimal if any weight gain. We shall see!

Quite familiar with the TREX machine https://campagnamotors.com/wp-conten...921-Gif-en.gif But not aware of the Allosaurus... glass as in fibreglass... But also quite anxious to see the New Gen in 2 days. |
