This car is ready to go as it is. You could buy it and then get a plane ticket to the Grand Rapids, Michigan airport and drive it home. I can give the XM radio ID codes so you can have XM radio on the drive home.
RACE HISTORY
This car was professionally purpose built for the Silver State Classic Challenge race (Google it.) It needed to be able to run over 165 mph for a prolonged period of time. That is why it has high quality parts to hold up to the task safely. It was run two years, One 90 mile race each year. First year the rear end lifted a couple times at very high speed so the carbon fiber rear wing was added to fix that for the next year.
I got it after it was built and done racing. I added heavy sound proofing, 1000 watt audio and the other interior things listed. I did that so it would be a comfortable ride around town whenever i wanted to drive it.
I ran 3 weekend HPDE events (Google it) with it. Grattan and Gingerman in Michigan. All very amateur driving myself. Not pushing the car to the limits like a pro would.
It has never done a quarter mile. Has not had repeated hard hits to the transmission that would be expected if it was a quarter mile car. I don't have any quarter mile time with it never having done it. It COULD do it and would be a nice car for that but has no history of that.
