    We raced against this car in Feb 2012 Sebring. It was broken in right and gently driven by James G. It is a brand new car. Beautiful, well built, Very High Quality. I looked over every inch of this car and I highly recommend.

    Good luck with the sale!

    Maybe I am just lucky but my wife never uses vulgar language like that, she just keeps supporting my racing habit.
    I know Glen C's wife is equally supportive.

    Don't worry Don, this is not really a hi-jack, it simply brings your ad BTTT.
    BTW I like your car.

    Default I wanna drive it soooo bad!

    This is certainly a car I am proud of. I want to drive it so bad, but it is available for rent at the January Nationals at Sebring. I have only been allowed to drive it across the paddock. Come on over and look at this car if you are there. Everyone knows how roomy the SCCA FE car is for accomodating even the tallest or biggest person, same space here.

    Default Here's a bump for ya Don

    Of course I may be a bit biased but this is a really great car. I watched Alan do a superb job of putting this car together. He spent a lot of extra time making sure everything fit right and made numerous improvements to the stock kit. This car should be a fast one. Not too many opportunities out there right now to be able to get a nearly brand new chassis turn key FB at this price.

    Good luck with the sale Don .I hope it stays in the SE.

    Default For rent as well

    Thanks for the kind words Tom, it was a labor of love to assemble the car. The car in question is available for rent for Central Florida events, and if someone is interested, we can get it to almost any event in the Southeast.

    Default Maybe should not be so firm on price

    The advert says firm on price because i want to have an opportunity to drive it! Possibly we would get more responses if the original ad felt more negotiable. I am adding spares to the inventory, and hope my pro schedule allows me time to drive it soon. Alan
