Default 2007 GT3 Cup, Ex K-Pax World Challenge

After sitting 2011 out and realizing my commitments for 2012, I've decided to sell my 2007 GT3 Cup. This car was Michael Galati's 2007 World Challenge race car and served as the team back-up in 2008. I bought the car directly from K-Pax in May of 2009.

This car is extremely fast and can challenge for overall wins anywhere. In 2010 Cort Wagner posted FTD at The Glen and Road America, 1:54 and 2:14 respectively. In each case, he felt he left a little on the table. Both times were with the old 3.6 WC spec engine.

A few highlights:
Fresh 3.8 liter PMNA engine, dynoed at 470 (maybe an hour on it).
Transmission rebuilt in June of 2010. Two race weekends since, but no enduros. Manthey blipper equipped.
Fresh Motorsport axles installed in the spring of 2011 by Kelly Moss.
4-Way JRZ's.
Motec Pro Data logging
Performance Friction brake kit
Wired for radio

Spares package includes:
Spare WC carbon fiber front splitter
Spare set of BBS
Spare Porsche Motorsport RSR Inconel mufflers
Spare RSR front uprights
Spare rear bumper cover
Spare 15" front brake rotors
Spare brake pads

$145,000

I encourage PPI's (at buyer's expense). For more information, please contact me at mklaskin@yahoo.com, or michael.klaskin@hp-motorsport.com Not sure why it says dealer listing.

Glen Gatlin knows how fast it is...

Thanks!

Bump with a price reduction, $130,000.

I'd like to sell, so feel free to give me some feedback.

Thanks.

Thanks Pete.

With everything I have on my plate, it's really tough to find the time to race. My plan is to take a few years off and be with my kids as much as possible. Once they enter the teen years and I become more expendable, I'll get back into it.

This is my only hobby, so it sucks to give it up, but what can you do?

great car. considering how much it cost to get a cup car in WC form, this is a great deal,. racing will be here when you get back, with faster and safer cars.
your kids, you only have them once.

I hear you. I have 4 of my own and am a couple of years into the teens with them... Don't think the time commitment eases up, if anything it gets more intense... Been pondering a little time off myself next year. You will be missed!!

I appreciate the support. Being around for the kids has to be top priority right now, but I will be back.

For what it's worth, Cort has been bugging me to do Road America this year. With the 3.8, he thinks 2:12's are possible.
