Listen to the Jeff Braun episode on the Slip Angle podcast. The car is insane.

And the Dinner with Racers 'Level 5' podcast, another gem.

That car is the result of a true unlimited budget to win an SCCA runoffs class. Tucker did the same with one of the prototype classes, C sports racer I think?

Urban legend is that Tucker had private security at the runoffs that year in case the Feds showed up... or maybe his competitors?

The part about private security is true. A friend of mine was competing against Tucker and they either had contact or came very close (I can't exactly remember). Anyway, my friend walked down to his paddock just to apologize/clear the air and he was denied access by the security.

Anyone know where/who this car ended up?
Crazy parts/specs would be great to hear it's being used somewhere?
