This car is sold pretty much ready to race with a current 2016 SCCA annual. Needs nothing but a transponder and a good alignment. Finished third at Road Atlanta Majors Sunday race this year, 1st in HP at the 2015 ARRC, class wins at The Mitty 2015. Runs 1:47s at Road Atlanta, easily more time in it with some setup work.
I have been working on sorting it out more and more since purchasing it in February 2015. Many new parts including fuel cell, pretty much the entire braking system including disc conversion, harness, etc etc. I have well over $2,000 in receipts from parts this year alone. In this past RA Double SARRC I made a mis-shift and bent two valves. I should have the car finished up this week with a freshened up head, new timing belt, water pump, head gasket, etc.

Cons: The car is not a show car, though we do our best to make it look good for being on a budget. The body is a vinyl wrap done by us, first time doing it so it’s far from perfect, it looks 10x better than the paint did though especially on track.
Asking $7,000 OBO. Transponder not included. E-mail me or PM. simon at simontibbett.com
The car is located ten minutes from Road Atlanta. I’ll even throw in a HANS device!
