I'm trying to acquire it, i want a play car...even if it's something i have to pull my engine in and throw it in for a night :D

[1civic]

Whats the Weight on that Bad Boy ?... :D

[99SI]

Yes, that is a shame that shell is sitting in the weeds collecting leaves and becoming one with nature. Get it and do something with it. Do you think you can get used to driving straight with the only turn coming at the end of 1320 feet??? lol :D

[Annihilation]

how much does he want?

[BABY J]

lolol, revamp suspension...see that rollcage? that roll cage is welded to the rear suspension...there is no shock or spring :tongue: ...zero squat

That's been tried, and is an older way of thought on launching HI HP FWD vehicles. It will still outrun NEthing local, but the big boys have abandoned that technique years ago. It does have 0 squat, but does NOT "push back" (which is proven to give more FWD traction) like the newer techniques (billion-and-one lb. spring rates).

I can vouche for the Lude it was one bad ass car i tried selling it once on ebay back when it was complete for 18,500 and almost had it sold. that woulda been a nice comission.

[BABY J]

^^ same concept!!! You were WAY ahead of your time man!!! :) A genius in the making! :)

[Black R]

[speedminded]

[wannab20hatch]

i wouldnt mind having raceworks del sol. that thing was pretty fast for a del sol. jason why is joey at HMOG? Raceworks close up shop? I havent been on 369 in a while.

[EJ25RUN]

Nice find.

[speedminded]

i wouldnt mind having raceworks del sol. that thing was pretty fast for a del sol. jason why is joey at HMOG? Raceworks close up shop? I havent been on 369 in a while.This thread is from '06. He hasn't been at Raceworks for at least 3 years now. They are not open to the public, haven't been for a few years, and they just built a new shop.

The Del Sol(s) are for sale, as a roller, complete, parts, whatever your budget is. They had 3 of them at one time but one kinda exploded and melted at Moroso/Palm Beach International years ago, it's amazing what 5 gallons of 100+ octane in the cockpit of a car can do lol!

[wannab20hatch]

lol i shouldve looked at the date. where is the new shop? last time i was up there was about 3 years ago. i had to drop off a turbo kit for them to fab pipes for.

stupid question but "not open to the public" how do they make profit?

stupid question but "not open to the public" how do they make profit?There's a TON of overhead to operating a shop, not counting salaries of those working. They're authorized retailers for Schroth and a few other products, create vinyl graphics, rent out Formula Mazda's, and have money...they're doing more formula and pro racing now and getting into prototypes.

[WalkS]

I've been wanting something like that also! Bring back life into a old race car.

[BKgen®]

raceworks? i drive by that place like every day :ninja:
