This well designed sports racer has all the proper crush zones for driver protection & good safety. Plus custom radiator & oil cooler that are located in the rear where they won't get hurt. Don’t forget the added safety of a full body with no open wheels like those open wheeled Formula cars have.

Car is extremely roomy & has a fully adjustable petal cluster & steering column to fit most any size driver from tall to short -- heavy to light -- it can fit them all - comfortably.

For perfect handling set up it has upper & lower a-arms with heim joints for exact Castor, Camber & Toe adjustability – front & rear. It has coil over Koni shocks at all 4 corners & threaded adjustable ride height spring perches on all 4 shocks to allow you to perfectly set up the car.

    We just added one of these sports racers to our stable of FFs. I have to say its a lot of fun. Great support from the WSR community here on Apex, on technical questions. We intend to use it for enduro racing, hill climb, track days and take it south to race with the guys in California.

    For us it's much easier to get track time (track days) with this SR than a FF. We still intend to run the Fords however this car affords us the opportunity to get our young drivers economic seat time. Two local hot shoes (M. Valenti and Dyrell O' young) reportedly used this car for the same reason, seat time.

    The WSR is great value for the money, low operating cost and the running gear (MR2) parts are all available from the local parts store.

    Mike good luck with the sale, I hope it stays in the West.
