075 Chassis $33,900 1 season on New Engine!
Well this absolutely kills me to do this, but I have to sell the race car... Baby on the way in May and also plan on doing a lot of work to our house. So I really won't have the time or money to race this year and probably next year either. I don't want this car sitting two years when it can be on the track where it belongs. The worst part is I am going to miss all the great racers and crew I have met along the way.
Anyway the info...

Old engine went at grattan while I was in 2nd btw. Man that sucked! Anyway I was running 87 octane which I was told at the time was the way to go. Well you can see what happened. New engine has had AVgas or race fuel. I installed an 02 bung and an innovate LC-1 wideband AFR monitor to be sure we were in the safe range and good to go with the AVgas. I have since sold the LC-1 but the bung is still there on the exhaust so you can easily reinstall a Bosch O2 sensor if you feel the need.
SPARES!!!
Full set of original elite gearset(1-5) and dogrings, used season 1 and 2. Awesome condition!!!
I never once had a gearbox problem. Never once broke a drive shaft.
The car is fast, with the new engine I did a 53.0 at a lime rock test day last year. I did a 53.9 with the old engine at a SCCA official event(John Stim Lime Rock Race 6/05). With the new penske's coming out for this car it's going to be a rocket ship.
The body work is NOT perfect. It has some spider cracks it's 3 seasons old. The paint is the 100mph job(looks great at 100mph!). Color is white.
You could:
1)Take off the body work(super fast and easy) and have your body man fix the few spider cracks and give it a fresh F1 paint scheme!
2)Buy new stuff and keep this as spares.
3)Sell it off and buy new stuff
4)Sell it off and go with the SR body, which is dead sexy btw!
5)Just run it and spend the money on tires and track time!!
In 2005 I started trying to left foot brake(06 went back to right foot) so I had the foot pads on the brake and clutch pedals modified. The brake pad is now twice as wide as the original and the clutch pad is 1/4 of the size of the original pad. I had the clutch pad made so small because the clutch is only used in the paddock. I also had the clutch pedal arm bent slightly over to the left so the clutch was completely out of the way. If you want to go back to the original setup it's very easy. You will have to buy new brake and clutch pads and a clutch pedal arm. I wouldn't think the pads are more than $25 a piece but I have not priced them. Not sure what the clutch pedal arm would cost. Install; 2min for pedal pads and probably 20min to put the new clutch pedal arm in. You may also need the foot drop floor pan if you are really tall, but I think a lot of tall guys aren't even using it.
What I would do to get ready for the 07 season.
1)Buy 2 set of slicks and 1 set of rains.
2)Buy new brake pads. I think these pads are only really good for one season.
3)Buy a TRE differential
4)Buy the new Penske's
5)Buy a nose and front wing. Good spare to have.
6)Buy the beefier drive shafts and keep the original ones as spares. Never had problems with mine but they are 3 season old now.
7)Kick some ASS!!!
$33,900 for everything.
