Please understand a few things about this replica.
#1 This was done on a budget of under $100.00!
#2 The doner car was cut up for racing and wrecked prior to the purchase of it.
#3 The only part on the car that would be valuable for a S1 replica that was not cut up or damaged is the drivers B-pillar.
Youtube of accident prior to our teams purchase.

The car was raced in 24 hours of lemons.
With the replica bodywork and paint it will be racing under a new series similiar to 24 hours of lemons which is called ChumpCar.
We will be racing in Portland OR on Halloween.
Several pictures of the car are here.
