Abarth 500

F1 Authentics 9

Description:

This has been the Abarth Racing UK development car, my road car and as of late Michael (our computer genius)’s road car.  It is the car featured on our website.  We have all the parts back to the original 135bhp specification but it is currently probably the fastest road legal 500 in the world.  It is certainly has more power than the AC500s being raced in the UK, but has comfy seats, trim and soundproofing.  I has never been damaged even after many track miles, now 66k.

The car can be sold in many different specifications, the purchaser will decide, but currently it would be a brilliant track day or sprint and hillclimb car.

The engine is essentially stock (we have tried fancy pistons etc but the standard Fiat components are brilliant at up to 8000rpm) and it has wanted for nothing.  The turbo is a hybrid of the Turbo Technics S260, it is a 12 blade K04 core.  The cooling package is the prototype of our race package, a full width water radiator below a large central intercooler.  With this cooling package the engine gives 315bhp at 7500rpm, but the torque is deliberately kept low so as to not break the drivetrain.  The amount of extra fuel needed is taken care of with one of our fuel pump boosters (normal mode 245bhp, flick the switch and full power).  The flywheel is a lightweight solid unit with a hybrid clutch.  The gearbox is a late type 5 speed with electronic limited slip.

The front wishbones have spherical bearings fitted for precise steering, the struts are AVO monotube with relatively soft springs.  The rear has properly fitted negative camber spacers and AVO dampers with suitable springs.  Currently it is sitting on 15” wheels with Nankang AR1 tyres, but we also have a set of 17” OZ racing wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tyres.

The roll cage is bolt-in, it was the prototype for the one make celebrity cars that we built, but they only had the rear hoop.  We have the leather rear seat and trims, but currently the rear has a flat panel and carpet.

We see this as the basis for a customer’s bespoke car.  We are moving on to the next generation car.
