Full documentation from past two years in considerable detail, including setup sheets, testing data, suspension analysis, receipts, calculations etc.

The car has been carefully maintained for safe, cost-effective racing, and was converted to meet Monoposto engine regulations from the original TOM's prepared F3 engine (available by separate negotiation) after sprinting in 2006.

Car steadily improved, despite novice driver, without radical modifications over 2007, scoring podiums in last two rounds. Winter saw conversion to radial tyres with appropriate changings to damping, springing and anti-roll bars. Car can easily be converted back to cross-ply tyres should the new owner want to do so.

2008 season started with an outright Monoposto 2000 victory and has seen six class wins, (twice runner up), six fastest laps, and two outright pole positions in the wet and has dominated the Classic class (CSCC words not mine) with 2 races to go. Only regularly beaten in Monoposto by late 1990s Dallaras, that race in a different class.

One of the prettiest cars on any grid!

Spares package

-springs for cross-ply use (can also include used cross-ply tyres)

-fuel cell

-sidepods

-CV joints

-Bilstein dampers

-anti-roll bars

Can be supplied as raced after final meeting of 2008, with only the onboard camera removed in the paddock, and we can provide track support for first test or race meetings to help buyer acclimatise to the car, as long as it does not clash with our own testing/racing commitments. Alternative specifications (without datalogger, as rolling chassis, or otherwise) can be negotiated if required.

We also have the original TOMs F3 engine, ECU, airbox etc (car was bought in running F3 spec), and this can be bought with the car separately, or fitted to the car and ready to go if needs be. With this engine re-fitted, and dropped to original ride height, the car would be eligible for Club F3 in the Masters class.

Very quick car (!) but one that can be driven close to the car's limits by a comparatively inexperienced driver.

Ideal vehicle to contest 2009 Monoposto Championship or SEMSEC Single Seater Challenge or would work very well for sprinting or hill-climbing.
