- Delivery of the first 10 Dowsetts Tipo184 kits in the USA. We invited the first 10 US customers to a hospitality handover and tutorial build day event at Radford Racing School, Arizona as a thankyou. This is a little film we made of the day.
We had a great day in Arizona. What a privilege to be included. This is an awesome race car project. Thanks Darren and Ant. 🏁
If ever Darren considers developing another chassis, I think the idea choice would be the French Talbot-Lago Grand Prix car of the same era; the Alpha and the T-Lago had a long and storied rivalry, and it would be great to see them competing - in perhaps a gentler fashion - on tracks around the globe once again.
This is awesome guys! Can't wait to see these out in the wild 👏
Es Antonio del programa joyas sobre ruedas...
Brilliant; Please more videos on anything Tipo 184 🤞
the only thing I don't love about this build is the fact it tries to fake how many cylinders it has. Why not just embrace what it is? Also wish I had known this kit was coming to the US. I hadnt even seen anything about it coming here. Is there an official dealer stateside?
Thanks for the comment. The whole Tipo 184 is a wonderful imagination, so why get hung up on one small part? If we embraced what it is as you say, it would just look like a Miata. Please subscribe to our CZcams Channel & take a look at our website tipo184.com there are updates, news, independent reviews and builders photo gallery. There's also a contact us facility if you want to place an order or just subscribe to our monthly newsletter. Thanks again for taking time to comment on our video.
Wonderful car.
What a machine love it! Is it a RHD or LHD?
Well, you sit in the center!!
But the kit is based on the UK Miata MkII (i.e. in USA a NB Miata) and therefore the steering rack is a RHD.
Those of us building the kit in the US sourced a RHD steering rack from the UK and had to modify our LHD front subframe accordingly - cut off two brackets, switch positions and reweld the brackets to the front subframe.
Is there a similar fraternity developing here in the U.K.? I’ve loved this since the first time I saw it. Seen it in the flesh at last year’s Classic Car Show at the NEC in both the Red & the Baby Blue liveries. If there’s a newsletter or owner’s club or some other group that has developed would someone please kindly post a link? Thanks & keep up the great work!
Any updates?
Hello I think it looks good as a race car how much and I'm in Australia
Thanks Andrew, all prices & information can be found on our website, we have sold Tipo kits all over the world and folks are already building kits in Australia & NZ
I would lose the weird AI "enhancement" on the voiceover in future.
Sounds really creepy.
I would much rather it was echoey instead of this weird warbly mess. At 2:46 it garbles the guy's voice so much I can't even understand what he's saying!
Great car, though. Really really want one.
