drivinhardz06 Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 This is a very well prepped AI car, I can't imagine you could find another AI car this well set up for the same price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TWI Posted July 20, 2011 Author Share Posted July 20, 2011 Who would fix THAT damage? Someone selling a car For my use, I beat it out with a rubber mallet and it is good to go from a 50-50 standpoint and I was going to race it this way but a dented fender and door looks poor to a potential buyer.

TWI Posted August 11, 2011 Author Share Posted August 11, 2011 (edited) Motor has a clean bill of health from a race shop which gave it a $700 inspection and found nothing out of the ordinary, I was apparently just being overly cautious about the previously mentioned metal shaving on the oil drain plug. Bodywork has not been fixed yet - too many racers have talked me out of addressing it. Tal Edited December 9, 2011 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sperkins Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Gosh this has to be the best deal on the planet for a well prepped race ready car that has the best of everything. Good luck with the sale Tal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck with the sale Tal. Thanks Scott. It is a screaming deal. I'll probably regret selling it, but I just made arrangements to buy another car and in the interest of marital harmony, I need to move this one. I've got it listed on Ebay. Someone in the shadows has to be in the market for a real nice car. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290598675974&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMESELX%3AIT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TWI Posted October 15, 2011 Author Share Posted October 15, 2011 (edited) Bodywork repaired and complete car repainted. Next week, I plan to photograph the car and rewrite the ad to clean up any confusion about how the car sits and what is different from when I purchased it in 2010.

TWI Posted October 15, 2011 Author Share Posted October 15, 2011 GLWS car looks great. If i had the money right now i would be jumping on it Thanks. It was implied but was not mentioned - the car is completely ready to race. Just put gas in it and go. I'll likely run it at Road Atlanta in December if it has not sold or I do not have a deposit on it at the time. The car has a current NASA logbook and 2011 Tech Sticker.

TWI Posted October 24, 2011 Author Share Posted October 24, 2011 The series of bad pictures continue - I will take the car out of the trailer next weekend and snap some better pictures including interior shots highlighting the great required "dash" to be AI legal. By the time I got to the car last week, the light was gone and I had left my camera at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWI Posted November 27, 2011 Author Share Posted November 27, 2011 Car will be at Road Atlanta for the Toy Run. I pit with the TT guys near the pavilion. Stop by and take a look. And bring your checkbook. Tal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWI Posted December 9, 2011 Author Share Posted December 9, 2011 Pricing as of 12-9-11 $14,500 complete $12,500 with Penskes removed and Bilstiens reinstalled Pictures from the Road Atlanta event on 12-5-11. Note, car is AI legal but I had to run in AIX because my dyno sheet was not current. Car is currently running a restrictor plate to hit 331hp target at 9.5/1, getting to 9.0/1 at 350hp is just a matter of removing the restrictor and re-tuning the car.

TWI Posted December 10, 2011 Author Share Posted December 10, 2011 The best I did this past weekend was a 1:40. I've got a list of excuses as long as my arm - first time behind the wheel in six months, cautious with the car since it was for sale and newly painted, two year old Toyo's, yadda yadda yadda - but it should run +/- 1:38's in it's current configuration on Toyo's if pushed a little more aggressively (cut the curbing in T3, upshift/downshift between T5 and T6, later braking into T10a, more throttle through T12 - I know where the time is). I don't know how much the extra .5lb/hp reduction (about 15hp) will help in 2012, but it surely cannot hurt. If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to ask.

goindeafonmtx Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I have been trying to move my car so I can come pick this thing up. Can't believe it has lasted this long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWI Posted December 29, 2011 Author Share Posted December 29, 2011 Use your christmas cash to put this race car in your garage. Edit - I am about to be in the market for a new daily driver. Don't be ashamed to shoot me your trade offer, worst I can do is say no. I can go up to $30k cash + my race car in trade for a 550-iish type sporty sedan or 911-ish sports car.
