This is Trixie, she's my baby. She is a barely street legal race car that is set up for SCCA E-Production. I rescued her from neglect in Tucson AZ 6 years ago. She looked nothing like this when I got her. She had a great chassis and body, shot motor and suspention. You could peel the paint off with your fingers. 3 and a half years later, I took her to her first HSR race at Sebring. Later that year we went to Rennsport Reunion III. Man that was a blast. There is nothing like beating the pants off a bunch of half million dollar cars with a relitivly stock 2.0L-4. (carbs & street cam). She didn't have the power but could spank them in the corners. On the engine stand is a 2.7L that will be ready to race NASAs GTS-2 next year.

Gunther - if I remember right when we spoke you said you had some pro race car experience correct?
Gunther
Its been almost 20 years ago I held an IMSA licence. Damn I'm getting old. pinch.gif

I was a driving instuctor, did a lot of club racing, was team owner, worked for pro and amateur teams, pit crewed and built some of the finest cars and race trucks around. Lately I'm lucky if I can do an auto cross or get on the track a couple times a year. Hopefully that will change next year now that I have moved to the Charlotte area, biggrin.gif

Thanks for sharing. Those are definitely SEXY cars! Even if you don't get them out as often as you like, I'm sure you have a blast when you do!
