    Default Red car in background

    March Super Vee, it spent a few years here in Oklahoma, then went to Florida. After that I think it went to the St. Louis area

    Hello - I have a few questions for you about your car -

    - can you please tell me how tall a driver would fit comfortably in the car?

    - what does the car weigh?

    - how much power does it make?



    Thanks so much - I look forward to your reply.

    Yes, I think you would fit in the car.
    I also wear a 11.5 shoe
    It has a 2" taller than stock roll hoop (tall boy Hoop)
    The pedals could be moved forward 2 spots, 1-2 inches if needed.
