AE101 Goes to Ultra Racing

After a few shakedown sessions, Kookaburra Racing decided to do some work on the Levin AE101. Base on the requirements, we needed more protective roll cage braces on top of the current Safety 21 roll cage and fitting of new seats.

When one talk about roll cage, Anti Roll Bars and metal works, the first to mind is Ultra Racing, the Chassis Tuning Specialist. Ultra Racing has a long standing partnership with Kegani Autotech and naturally, Kookaburra Racing has the car shipped to Ultra Racing for chassis tuning works.

Ultra Racing also help us fit the bracket for a new RaceCraft bucket seat.

AE101 Take On SIC Again

On 23rd August 2009, Team Kookaburra Racing brought the AE101 Levin to SIC for another shakedown and practise during it's regular open track day. More tests were done on the car before heading into the workshop for stiffening work. Once completed, more updates will be featured here.

AE101 at the pit ready for some action!

Almost Race Pace Levin

The Kookaburra Racing Levin recently hit the Sepang International Circuit for a private track day event on the 10th of August 2009 to run further shakedown and handling tests. The Levin was running great throughout the day under Kenny Hwang's hands.

The suspension is setup just right for now. However, the handling department needs a little more tweaking. Some body strengthening for extra stiffening and also further protecting bars needed for the roll cage at the doors. Also in the plans, some data logging facility would be useful for driver training and tuning.

Nonetheless, on road purpose semi-slick Maxxis tyres, the Levin was easily doing 2:46s with rev limited to 7000rpm (still in shakedown phase).
