The Raw Striker is substantially the same as the Sylva Striker, with minor changes. It is a lightweight, spartan, sports car, with a FMR layout. There is a large range of suitable engines, though Raw themselves specialise in the Toyota 4AGE engine.
The Striker is a successful racing car [http://web.mac.com/rawuk/iWeb/Raw/Raw%20Race%20Results.html] Raw Race Results] with particular success in
750 Motor Club races [http://www.750mc.co.uk/RaceResults-kit-cars.php] 750 Motor Club Race Results] . Additionally, there is a race series only for Strikers inIreland [http://www.irishstrykers.com/] Irish Strykers] and another single-make series is being launched by the 750 Motor Club for Raw Strikers.Fulcrum
The Raw Fulcrum was introduced in 2008 and is substantially the same car as the Striker. It has different bodywork without the open wings of the Striker. This closed bodywork improves aerodynamics significantly.
