We bought the car to race in 24 hours of Lemons but we can't get enough drivers available for the same weekends. When we bought the car it needed a head gasket, we pulled the engine and replaced all the bearings, measured and honed the cylinders, installed new rings and had the cylinder head machined. We tuned the engine using a standalone wideband O2 system (not included). We did one track night in America at Autobahn and the car ran great.
This car only needs and alignment to reduce some of the oversteer and make the car more neutral and then its ready to race.

This could easily be a club race car, lemons car or champ car. The car comes with a ton of new and used spares.

$4500 firm

Wow, you're close to my wife's office.

Bummer to hear you can't get together for a race. Looks like a fun car. 

Hopefully I'll see you at an event in person!

My favorite type of race car , I wish I could do something to buy it but until  I move some of my projects I just can’t .
