If these allegations are even remotely true then it'll take more than a few months and you'll be buying it at auction as part of a "recovery effort" for the investors. Same with the contents of the race and street shops.

Might be the only way to get my Cayman gearbox back. *sigh*

In the meantime, anyone know where I might find a Cayman 6sp used?

How do you make a small fortune in racing?

Start with a large one.

I wonder how many race cars they're going to have repossessed or have to auction. maybe pick up an RSR for HPDE?

Inteesting that Kip bailed well before all this hit the fan. Could just be a coincidence.

everyone says this sport is worse than drugs, here is a prime example of what people do to race. TRG seems to be a legit team with a plan. May be FL just got way over their head. That does suck though for the innocent people.

It sucks when the championship winning team can't keep their operation going. ALMS needs to be put on life support, and fast.
