FD track car for sale- REDUCED

I've listed my car for sale after a recent deal fell through. You will not find a better, faster FD track car anywhere. Ask Fritz what hew says...

Someone in the For Sale sections asked a few questions and I answered...
Weight of the car is 2550 with 3/4 tank of gas. It flies at only 11 lbs of boost. The maps are good to one bar, but the speeds are wacky. OIl temps at VIR never went over 205 in the heat. Water temps were 194. This car is solid.

Drat. It is still for sale and I still can't scrape up the funds. What a steal...

Want a single turbo? Have a running stock seq car?
Sell it and buy Brad's car!

Want to look like Schuey? Power out of corners like nobody else's business? Pass those pesky Corvettes and Vipers?

Buy Brad's car! Buy Brad's car! Buy Brad's car!

Best track car for the money anywhere on this planet. The fabrication and attention to detail on this car is the best I've ever seen on an FD track car.

I must confess that I'm the dumbass that left Brad hangin on the car sale. I have good reason but its irrelevant I fucked up. End of Story.

Maybe try posting this on http://www.race-cars.com/
Might be more likely to find a serious buyer here. Beautiful car, hope this helps.

Car is in Houston, but I can ship to Canada if you want. Many folks have seen and driven the car, so I have lots of references.

Thanks, it is on ebay, too... http://uucurl.com/x.jsp?p=105

Is the car registered and pass smog?
I mean, can I drive it on street legally, or is it track only?

the car as it sits, is a track only car. Stripped interior, no cats, etc. Excellent track car...no doubt.

Tim, yu are correct. This is a 'race' car. There is no interior (save the custom aluminum dash) and a FULL cage (which is welded to the roof). If you are a track rat this car is finished for you. If you want a street/track car... keep looking.

jeez, I just caught the meaty rubber on that thing....265 front and rear and the double adjustable racing shocks with those spring rates. I bet that thing handles the track like a dream. I always like the small but effecting hood vouvers Jim had cut into the hood. It was so damn good of a job, it looked stock.

The car turns in like a formula car. It really is a blast to drive. (for you guys who don't know, a 265/650x18 slick is the same dimensions as a 275 Hoosier). Yeah, Jim's louvers are a great solution and the hood is super light without the bracing. SOMEONE buy this car!!!! :-)
