    Default 2010 Firman F1000

    RFR - 2010 F1000
    Chassis # 011, Logbook # 55-340

    2009-2016 Suzuki GSXR 1000 with Firman West dry sump (approx 3 hours on motor since rebuild)
    AIM EVO4 data system with GPS
    AIM Formula wheel
    Flatshifter Expert no lift shift system with paddles
    Lifeline 2000 electronic fire suppression system
    Roxanne’s Custom Stainless header pictured at http://www.roxannesheaders.com/
    Ohlins Two Way adjustable shocks, 1100# and 700# springs
    APS calipers
    WRD limited slip differential - Serviced September 29, 2017
    HRP extended diffuser
    OZ 12 spoke Magnesium wheels - 8”&10”
    Mavryk A123 Lithium Ion lightweight battery
    Straight front wing main plane
    Shark fin antenna
    New fuel cell foam - replaced June 2017

    Spares Include:

    1x 2009-2016 Suzuki GSXR 1000 (freshly rebuilt) with Firman West dry sump
    1x 2009-2016 Suzuki GSXR 1000 (freshly rebuilt)
    1x full set (4 wheels) OZ 12 spoke Magnesium wheels - 8”&10”
    1x full set (4 wheels) OZ 12 spoke Magnesium wheels - 8”&10”
    Full set body work minus rear wing (used)
    Full set suspension, including control arms, brakes, uprights, differentials, complete axels, shocks (used)
    Firman West Setup bracket (This is a custom built bracket used for car setup. Makes stringing the car super easy).
    Quick Jack
    Racing Radios in Case
    Additional spares (including oil coolers, etc) that are too numerous to mention (about 6 boxes full of additional spare parts, some good condition, some ok)

    This car has had only 3 owners since new and has complete record/logbook of all events. Car has excellent mechanical grip and has several good finishes to its record including 2nd place at Watkins Glen with Jose Gerardo in 2018 in one of its most recent outings with the NorthAm F1000 Championship.

    Car has been fully maintained throughout its life with a new Flatshifter paddle shifter system installed on the AIM Steering Wheel in 2020 (the manual side shifter is still installed in the car as a backup, it only has to be connected). I built up the spares on this car so there are enough spares to last several years of competition. You won’t need to purchase anything extra to race except gas and oil. Easily more than $60,000+ worth of both car and spares if purchased new.

    Located in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

    $37,500 or make offer, for car and all spares including engines.

    The car is back for sale.

    As the ad mentions this car comes with a pretty full spares list that includes 2 spare motors. Enough to keep racing for years without having to buy additional items.
