First, i need to throw a huge plug for Karl for the absolute best site unseen transaction ever. I would not hesitate to purchase one of his cars. the pictures, the videos, the information he got from the team that ran it, everything was spot on.

The car!! so i have never driven a cup car, but had a street GT4 and this car (i have only driven it on **** rubber that was old and raced on) is so sweet. Feels way different in my opinion to the street car which it should. i have two e36 m3 race cars (for a reference of my butt feel...)

The car is a full MR, with exception of the bonnet and shocks. the team that ran the car left the alum bonnet and put on 3 way motons. has the motec c125

I received spare doors, wing, shocks, all air tools, books, something like 10 extra wheels, drive shaft spacer. car came with 5500 miles on it.

Let me know if any questions. i am seriously pumped to learn to drive this car fast and to have my first factory built race car!!

oh yea it was delivered to the track in the pouring rain hah

Congrats! I'll keep those endurance lights on, they look superb! Looks like the original installation was a bit "butched" but you can cheaply order a new front bumper and bore some proper holes in it to show your car's endurance pedigree
