Is that the same car that was up for sale in Greenwich for like 2 years?
Albert is a friend of ours form NH, It is the car he bought. Its a fairly decent package with a ton of spares.
I do think its was the car from Greenwich, only due to logbook pictures. Was interested who built it and why they sold it. Like was it folded in half and pieced back together with duct tape. There is a video of it bouncing off the tire wall at NHMS but thats not that bad. Thats were the friendly wavy body work is form.

If the logbook shows SCCA Driver school at NHMS in 2011 as the last entry then I can tell you the car was only scratched and banged here and there after the event.
The video I sent you is basically what I have been seeing all weekend long. That guy purchased the car and from the first lap he had handling problems. I remember seeing a broken (fully) left rear control arm or some kind of suspension component.
He probably gave up racing after that school due to all the spins and wall contact, but the car was still OK. I would not worry too much as long as the car is straight.
So I payed the money for the rig today. Gonna pick it up next week. Trailer is ful right now.
Next question, Race it or Sell It? I am thinking race it and see what becomes of the class. Who knows, maybe a 200TW race series needs some cars for 2014.

I said race it from the start!!! So come to ITS and play with us. And we might even get this 200tw tire thing to work for next year. Stephen Blethen and i were talking the other night as we finished the vinyl on the bimmer. I think he has a very good idea with this whole thing and it would be a fun thing to try!!!

I say retrofit it with rear drums and petition ITD(inosaur) to let you run it!
