The last time this car was entered in a race it was still in EP. I was familiar with the owner and the prep shop that serviced it back then. AFAIK it only has some test time at LRP since being restored last year by Erik for his friend Dave (the seller). Apparently Dave is more interested in motorcycle racing instead.

Last race was probably in '97. The engine currently installed was never in the car back then. It is freshly rebuilt by Erik after purchasing the components from Aircooled Racing in PA.
Erik put a lot of time into updating and improving the car. Testing at LRP was last year. Pretty sure they spent most of the time working out bugs and never got down to turning good lap times. It may require a little more sorting but it was regionally competetive before, so it should clean up at regionals in the hands of a good driver. |
