Difference between SR3 and Prosport

[pigiron]

Other than the transmission What are the fundamental differences between the SR3 and Pro-sport 1300 circa 2001?

[SportsLibre]

very different, width,length, chassis, body, aero you name it it is different.

PS. given the same engine, the old prosport is probably faster

[RobC]

In the right hands a SR3 is quicker, the Prosport is easier to drive quick imho but lacks that last 10th's

[Simon T]

I agree with Rob although I think it is only the later spec bodywork that gives the cars the clear edge in performance. The prosport is easier to get to 99% of its total performance the SR3 needs more commitment to get the best from it

Unlike mucho talented hands like Rob C & Simon T, it'll be a long long time (perhaps/probably never) before slow guys like me could extract any difference between a Prosport & an SR3! On track, all Radicals in sound fettle have phenomenal pace compared to most every other car.

I therefore suggest that unless two seat converted (an idea the results of which not everyone is entirely convinced about / comfortable with) the downside or some might say the upside of the Prosport is the 'go solo' bit. For me, strictly a trackdayer, the joy of the two seaters (be that SR3 or SR4) is being able to either drive or passenger; I find the passengering bit both enjoyable and informative.....like he seems to get a better line through there than I did...............oh, now I see why.
