New Car Report for 2013

[Bill Bonow]

Thought it would be useful to list out some of the cars that should or could be out in 2013 and the various areas of the country where the cars are located. Some of these are new cars, some are new conversions and some have reached "garage queen" status without ever turning a wheel. Either way, most everyone on this list is either an Apex reader or have contact with the car to report on its current status.

NE Div:
Dennis Richarson - Abrigail Adams Aero - FV conversion - Should be racing in 2013
John Stofka - Caracal D - FV conversion - Should be racing in 2013

GL Div:
Dave Woodmancy - Vector GB 4 - FV conversion - Should be racing in late 2013
Dave Satterly - Caracal D - Previous FV/FST conversion - Needs status update

NorPac Div:
Scott/Aaron Meyer - Crusader M7 - FV conversion - Should be racing in 2013
Scott/Aaron Meyer - Diamond DFC 10 - New FST - Should be racing in 2013
Brian/Terran Swanson - Mysterian M5 - New FST - 85% complete for 8+ years **
Jim Lepetich - Adams Aero - FV conversion - Should be racing in 2013

So Pac Div:
Jim Nash sold a Mission MR-09 "kit" to a customer in the LA area - Needs an update

SW Div:
Jim Nash has a Mission MR-09 "kit" ready to ship to an undisclosed customer in Texas

At this point, it looks like (10) more FST cars have a real shot at being on track in 2013.

If you see a mistake or I missed someone (or a car), please post with updates.

** Brian has been waiting for a new FST engine to complete his M5

I have it on good authority that there are at least two more cars slouching toward Bethlehem to be born. But I'll leave it to their owners to post. I agree with Bill that it looks like things are happening.

[Jim Nash]

Here are a couple shots of Kit #2 being prepared for pick-up or shipping.
