Competing in Australia's fastest racing series - Formula 4000

 

August 2007 - Bowin is moving forward

Our Bowin P3 should have a Cosworth FVA engine and after many years we have taken the plunge and purchased a cylinder head casting in the UK. Obviously that's only part of the solution but we have collected a number of pieces over the years and it uses the same lucas injection as our twin cam so hopefully we can get to have two running engines for the car. I'm acquiring the rest of the parts now.

December 2006 - New Project.

After being distracted by employment for a couple of years we are back working hard on restoring our Bowin P3 historic racecar that hasn't run since 1989.

Heres the website for our car on Bowin Cars
