1997 RF97 Van Diemen Formula Continental Package For Sale

Hello Apexspeed,



I have a RF97 Van Diemen Formula Continental package for sale Chassis #2299.



Background/History:

This was Justin Pritchard's National car back in 97 and was race nationally up to 02 by several other drivers with the results of those races written in the log book. Then according to the log book, it was ran a season in the MARRS series and then sat at the end of 02. This car was then listed for sale on here in Summer 2013 as a package by a guy in Virginia (I have the name written down somewhere) that had no time for it and finally decided to sell it cheap. John Newcomb in Alabama bought, kept a few things from the package and listed it for sale on Racing-Junk. I bought it from John Newcomb in the Fall of 2013 with plans to fully rebuild the car and run it regionally with the SCCA.



I completely rebuilt 90% of the car from the frame up with a few things left to do, and then moved to St. Petersburg to work with Cape Motorsports W/ Wayne Taylor Racing full time and now have no time or room to complete the car. So, I have decided to sell the car. The car and spares are currently being stored in Lancaster, PA in a climate controlled warehouse (as seen in picture 1) with the water drained out of the car. The logbook is also in Pennsylvania.



The car features:

-0 time freshly rebuilt pinto engine tuned and dynoed at 155hp and 155tq (was previously a national quicksilver motor before this rebuild)

with a freshly lightened and balanced flywheel (close to 11lbs, 10.5lbs is class minimum)

What still needs to be done:

-Firebottle needs to be re-installed and plumbed (firebottle is still good and I have new tubing to plumb it)

-Rear Upper A-arm bearings need to be swedged (I call Brad from primus to buy the tool but he was out of stock when I called). He also said I could just send them to him and he'd do it at a minimal cost.
