[urq] urq Digest, Vol 100, Issue 17

[Michael Williams]

I can personally vouch for the 4ktq race car listed below. Tim built it in 98 I believe, and continued to develop it during my time racing with him under Gecko racing, and we ran it as the first car under the 4 Ring Racing banner in 99 and the first few months of 00 while we were sponsored by Audi and were waiting for the A4 to be delivered. 

Tim Valencia is a genius. The roll cage in that car was built in the same vein as a touring car from that time frame. He was a master welder, and we won the super unlimited championship with the car in 99. Tim went off on his own in 00 and won the series again, and after leaving 4Ring Racing, he went back to the Gecko monicker an teamed up with javad. 

Unless things have changed, the fender flares are steel. And yeah, a little rough, but it sure looks bad ass from 10 feet. Sounds amazing too. 

I wish I had the money to buy it. I would give anything to be able to campaign that car in NASA. 

:(

Robin, drop me a line. I might be able to find an interested party. I would love to find a way to bring it back "home". 

Thanks,
Michael
