Stalker V6 Clubman
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Stalker V6 Clubman made by Brunton Automotive is a kitcar replica of a Lotus Seven .
The drivetrain is based on components from the Chevrolet S-10 two-wheel drive pickup truck as sold in the United States and Canada from the mid 1980s through the early 1990s. These components are plentiful, well-built, and inexpensive. Older Stalker used the 2.8 or 3.4 l 60° V6 engine out of a mid-1990s Chevrolet Camaro or Pontiac Firebird. Most Stalkers now use the GM 3800 series II or III V6, in both naturally aspirated and supercharged forms. The torque and flexibility of these engines and the overall light weight of the vehicle — 1400 lb (635 kg) — combine to make it very competitive in autocross competition. It excels at acceleration, cornering, and braking. With a top speed in excess of 150 mph, and handling to match, the Stalker is one of the fastest Track Sevens anywhere. Stalkers recently trophied at the SCCA SOLO NATIONALS 2007,(Scott Minehart), N.A.S.A. Time Trial Nationals at Mid Ohio ( Dennis Brunton), Run and Gun Pro Class Top Dog 2007( Dennis Brunton) and Street Tire Top Dog( Justin Sims)at Gateway International Raceway. A Stalker ( as at April 2008)also holds the Time Trial Unlimited Track Record at Homestead Motor Speedway in Florida, with a blistering 1:32.8 secs( Dennis Brunton) All the above were with Street Legal Stalkers!!
