Hello Viva-fans!
I'm from Austria and working on one (or two) Vauxhall Viva HB.
Some friends of mine and me are bulding a racecar for our 3rd participation a 24 hour rallyecross race in June.
In the last 2 years we were driving Citroen BX (because of it being absolute *Bleep*).
The meaning of the race is building a racecar "as cheap as possible" and "as old as possible" that will last 24 hours and 1200 km on a rallyecross-track.
We got one car with a fairly good shell (1966 HBD) and one (196x SL90) with disk brakes and now we are bulding one racecar out of this two. Both cars are in a shape that's not suitable for road-use without putting a couple of 1000€ in it, so we are not going to destroy any heritage. Instead we are using those 2 cadavers for building one fine racecar for the 24 hour race and following trackdays.
Excuse my English as I'm no native speaker, but i hope it's readable enough
Greetings from the alps, Martin
