F3000?

where were these cars utilized?

[Jon Jeffords]

I know nothing about these cars, but man, that looks like a sweet ride. Eight suspension springs to keep this old body from bruising! Carbon fiber protection from the wall at the Kink. It even appears to be fairly serviceable.

Not that I could afford such a beast, but what's the story on that Chrysler engine? High strung and made from unobtaineum parts?

Looks a bit like the cars used by the Mario Andretti Racing Experience folks.

[Charles Warner]

Possible cars used in the Mexican series that was tried about that time.

[marc sproule]

lola chassis were used in the indy lights series for several years, including 1996, using buick v-6 motors.

i think it was the same chassis as the f3000 chassis.

a quick search did not reveal a whole lot of info.

"a quick search did not reveal a wholw lot of info."

so much for the power of the internet LOL

[iracer]

They are mexican F3000 series cars which I believe ran for a couple of years. Subsequently they were bought by a F1 driving experience school at Shannonville in Ontario Canada. The engines have forged rods, crank and pistons with race cams. The redline is 7000 rpm so they are very under stressed plus we have tons of spare parts for the engines as well. The cars are very easy to drive and we have 3 new sets of Avons as well. The drivers compartment is huge.

Price drop to $75,000

Cars are sold and this is the new livery of the red one.

[Charles Warner]

From the livery I assume it did not stay north of the border . . . eh?

[old 59]

By the look of the garages I would say it did stay north of the border. Sorry.

[Charles Warner]

Nothing to be sorry about. Any tobacco livery is taboo at most venues in Canada by law. There is no leeway even for historical content.
