    We may have talked before, but how tall are you and weight?. One of the best FST's in the country is here in my garage. However it was custom designed for someone not as big as most. 5"8 and maybe 175 lbs is the driver it would fit.

    Car probably has four races on it. With 2 wins. It's here in Lexington, KY.

    Jim, As I mentioned in my email to you, I am 6' and 170 lbs. As Robert and I discussed at Mid-Ohio in October, I am a little too big for the Wolfe. I know that it is an extremely innovative car and one of the best around but won't work for me unfortunately.

    I tried on Lynn & Brad's Silver Bullet at Mid-Ohio, but it also was a bit snug for me. It too was a very nice car.

    I guess I am looking for something that needs some TLC after gathering dust for a while or a project that I can build up. As many cars as have been built or converted through the years, it seems that quite a few must be sitting idle somewhere. Why isn't anyone more anxious to get them back on the track for larger fields? Just my way of thinking I suppose! Anyway, I still owe you that lunch!

    If you don't want a project car and would like to start at the pointy end of the field, my car will easily fit you. I am 5'8" and 175lbs and have 4" of padding on each side of me. It is listed on the first site. I am not willing to give it away.

    Ed,

    Robert passed along the spec sheet and photos of your car. Very nice indeed and no doubt a front runner!

    Just was hoping for a little more of a project, but you never know!

    Steve,

    Really wanting to find a FST since most of the tracks they run (OH, MI, IN) are within a fairly easy tow. Plus, there are several FST gurus close to me to provide technical assistance and moral support!

    Thanks & I will continue to follow the FV community on FB!
