RF98 Van Diemen
CAR IS SOLD! THANKS APEXSPEED
It's time to part with my RF98. This has been a great car and a lot of fun. We won National races, Regional races and even qualified P1 in a National. Not bad for a 57 year old driver.
This car could really cook with someone that actually has some driving skills. Narrower cockpit makes for an aerodynamic shape and very quick in a straight line. This car is able to get a tow from DB1s and DB6s with no problem.
This car was at the FF 40th in 2009 and would have qualified 10th out of 100+ cars in the regional had the driver not developed a nerve injury in his hand.
Body in very good condition with very nice paint and some customization to the tail. Tail is similar to the FC cars and more aerodynamic than the standard RF98. Side mounted air scoop allows for improved aero and intake. Aluminum LD19 calipers.
Three very nice sets of Panasports in great condition. Triple Penskes and cockpit adjustable front sway bar. Adjustable rear sway bar. Engine built by Charlie Williams. Car previously owned by Russ Rudiscilli and qualified for the Runoffs.
Get ready for the upcoming season. Car is ready to go. Great candidate for Honda conversion.

RF98
The RF98 may be the most under-rated FF available. These cars are very aerodynamic making it quick in a straight line. I have picked up a tow behind Swift DB-1s and DB-6s with no problem.
Car is a great Honda conversion candidate. Plenty of these cars have been converted already and prove to be very fast. Best time for an RF98 with a Honda at Mid Ohio was in the 1:29s.
Front cockpit adjustable roll bar, rear adjustable roll bar, Pi2 dash with software, Panasport wheels are in great condition, WILLANS harness good through 2017 :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Great looking car. I'd enjoy seeing it in my garage (if there wasn't already a race car there).
Good luck with the sale.
-
Thanks Russ! Yes, this car gets a few compliments.
-
Ralph, will a 6 foot tall driver with a size 12 shoe fit?
-
Lots of room in these cars for height and feet, but shoulder room is the issue. Slim 6 footers will fit.
-
-
Thanks, Greg. Yes, plenty of room for feet.
I'm 5'10" and about 180 LBS and fit comfortably. I wear a size 40-41 coat.
A previous owner of the car was 6 foot and fit nicely, too.
