Title: Track width difference between 131 racing and stradale Post by: alfabruce on October 31, 2019, 03:47:53 AM Hi from South Autralia
Im thinking of building a 131 stradale replica but cant find much information of the increase in track width from the 131 racing. Im trying to work out what sort of engineering approval I would need here in Adelaide to get a possible increase in width approved by the government registration department. I have figure that say the 131 r was 160omm wide front and 1456 rear which is the same as the stradale. Other information says the 131r was only 1384 wide front and 1327 rear which could cuase me some problems because of the much wider track. Look forward to hearing your thoughts.

(On my racecar in South Africa.)
Can you not do the same after approval?

If the difference in track between the racing and stradale is not too great it will make it far more viable. |
