Ginetta G22

The Ginetta G22 was announced in January 1978 as a car for the Sports 2000 category, then dominated by chassis from Tiga, Lola, March, Chevron and others. It ran a 2.0 litre Ford Pinto overhead camshaft engine in enclosed bodywork over what was in effect a lightly modified Formula Ford 2000 single-seater chassis, and cost 3,000 pounds without engine and gearbox. As with most of Ginetta's motorsport involvement it relied heavily on a privateer or team to do the development work, with little factory support, so the car was never properly developed: fewer than a handful reached the tracks and even fewer competed in a full campaign. The owners club lists three built.
