Turnkey 2001 Citation FV01 Formula Vee

I really am sick to my stomach for needing to do this, but with the loss of work and the starting up of my own business, my 2010 racing plans are done—and 2011 isn't looking likely, either. In all reality, I won't be racing anything anytime soon with the happenings of last month. The new business and the family comes first, and I need to focus my priorities on making squarehead.design succeed. It makes no sense to let this car sit in my garage unraced when there are so many other important things that need to be attended to. I need to focus on the business, and right now, there is no room for a race car in this house. I'll probably have my Jeep Cherokee up for sale soon, too, as I rarely drive anymore.

I spent 9 months looking at used FVs, so I know where this car fits in the quality of cars that are out there and available. I really don't believe there are many nicer cars out there, period, let alone for sale. Anyone would be lucky to own a car this nice. I certainly feel I was lucky to find it.



Former factory works car purchased built by Citation distributor Larry Campbell, in 2002. it was the very last Citation Formula Vee sold and built. Ground up rebuild 2006 by Jim Ryder (Ryder GTP). Cockpit bars have been professionally modified to fit large drivers, so there is plenty of room in this car for just about anyone. If you don't fit in this, you should probably consider a tin-top to race. The car is flawless, and you can just about eat off of any part of the car—it's that clean. I don't even see any chips in the paint.
