    Default 99 VD NARRC Championship Car

    UPDATED!
    November 12, 2008


    Car = SOLD

    Trailer= $9000


    CargoPro Series 3000 18-foot with v-nose aluminum trailer. The trailer includes lots of Etrack and PitPal ramps, PitPal oil/etc can holder, PitPal glove/towel holder, PitPal air pressure gauge holder, PitPal radio holder, etc. Has both 110 and 12 volt wiring plus front top and bottom cabinets. Includes specially constructed tire 'hammock' that holds two sets of tires, plus I put another set of tires next to the car so I'd always have three sets with me. Bought new in late fall of 2006.
    Price: New price is $9,000

    Due to the e-mails i have been receiving-----

    i know the Spares sheet says $900/set for the Oz rims and the real 'street' price is $1200, was too lazy to make the change to the original PDF. And yes, many of you want the rims... Car MUST sell first and it all depends on if the buyer of the car wants only the rims at a proper price or takes the entire spares package.

    The weight bridge is by MK with Intercomp scales, the price on the pdf is VERY lowball compared to the real value (imho). Again, was too lazy to reprice it on the pdf.

    Also, i have a top of the line Chasecam system also for sale (not sure what going price is, will have to take time to look it up). There is sooo much stuff here for the car it is hard to list it all... and why if someone buys the whole package (car/spares/trailer) they should be VERY happy.

    Am hoping someone buys the car and takes it to the upcoming WGI (or some other) event before the season ends. She is really a great car and i HATE seeing great race cars just gathering dust in garages (or museums like a few friends' cars do). Race cars BELONG on the race track

    This Is truly a nice package. Steve keeps a clean house so to speak and goes quite quickly with it. Last time I saw the car out Steve was with his engineer for the day fine tuning things. Again nice package and I am sad to see it go!

    I have shared a garage spot in New Hampshire with Steve and this car. I must say that his car is always meticulously prepared and all equipment is first class and spotless. I don't think that I've ever seen him lose a race. The car could start at the back (a little too much pre-grid chatting????) and quickly run through the field to take the checkered flag.

    Good luck to you, Steve, and congratulations to the lucky person who purchases your equipment!

    Thanks Lizwizz, and yes was a bit too chatty with some friends before the recent qual session at NHMS. Still, only needed 6 laps to qual on pole (only to be taken away due to 1cm too high rear wing height that is now fixed. So they DQ'ed my pole position qual time due to wing height, started near back of the grid, and you know how i finished that race


    EVERYONE: And this brings up, my apologies if i have 'undersold' the car per se. Yes, she has won a staggering amout/percentage of races, though felt simply saying NARRC Championship car would suffice. The car is very strong and extremely competitive. There are various 'whizzy' bits, car is extremely well prepared, excellent flooring, solid chassis, etc. Have seen other ads that list each and every little bit and piece on the car itself. My apologies if my ad does not do that, yet when you come see the car in person you will truly understand how well this car is ready for action. She literally sits here waiting to race next week or so at WGI. So buy today, race it next week.


    Good luck to you, Steve
    Many thanks, and do not be surprised if i just stop by a few races in 2009 simply to say hi to everyone and lend a hand if anyone needs it. Everyone has been so great, the least i can do is return the favors.
    Enjoy the Track,

    Thanks Rob, and you know the car well... and it was great racing with you. How is the F1000 project coming along?

    As an FYI, decided to get back into drumming with acoustic set, got tired of the Roland electronic so i (literally) just got Stewart Copland's (of The Police) drumset here. E-mail me if you want to see pics. Amazing drum set!

    Jim, about 6' 1" max is my guess depending on how you do the bead seat and adjust the pedals. i am including my bead seat fitted by Glenn @ GTP, which is for 5' 10" driver with 33-inch waist.

    Car is sold. Picked up yesterday, will remain in NE.

    We only took the car, so there is plenty of very nice stuff left, but i understand spares are already going by word of car being sold, so act fast. His trailer is super clean, like new, if anyone is looking.

    Steven is very easy to deal with, and obvioulsy prices his stuff reasonably

    cheers

    Glad to see this car off the market... it was offered at way too tempting of a price.

    Len,

    Thanks for stopping by and the car should bring him many hours of great track racing. Thanks also for the compliment on the trailer and business transaction, as anyone who meets me realizes i am just a guy having fun in life with each 'new toy' acquired. Sadly, it was time to put racing on 'pause' and i HATE seeing good race cars just gathering dust in a garage or museum (it should be a jailable crime, literally).

    FYI EVERYONE: Yes, the spares are going FAST by word of mouth alone! Track guys who helped me want the stuff

    For now am mainly selling to those who have generously helped me over the years at the track. Kinda giving back to those who were kind to me. Monday or so i shall have a detailed list of what is left once the few guys who are stopping by here this weekend get done with picking/choosing/buying. Len saw my spares... i have LOTS of stuff so stay tuned and PLEASE DO NOT e-mail asking for items until AFTER i post the list on Monday or so.

    CargoPro Series 3000 trailer (18x7 with v-nose,front cabinets, 12V &120V) is still for sale and it must be about $13+k of trailer and PitPal/E-Track bits if new... still for sale at a low low $9,000 folks!

    PS: My apoliogies Len, the PitPal ramps stay with the trailer, and yes they rock!!!
    Enjoy the Track,

    Ric,

    Have a GREAT time driving her. The saying is 100% right, "She was the most fun i ever had (with my clothes on)". If you ever have questions on the car, feel free to give me a shout out here or via voice.

    In the end what REALLY matters is that you...
