Vintage Race Cars Red Devil F440
Added on Sept. 11 by Racr Fan NY

This is our ‘85 Red Devil 440. The car was built and ran 8 races with Jack Foster in 85 and 86. Since that time it was taken apart and sat in several boxes. November of ‘07 my son and I got ahold of it and have put her back together. As of Sept ‘08 weve run 5 solo events with FTD at 3 and a close 2nd at the others. I have the original SCCA log book. Its a blast to drive and fun knowing she’s been brought back to life.

That looks like a fun ride. Good job in putting it back together. A race car in pieces is no fun for anyone.

Hey nice to see someone on here who I autocross with! I run either the blue civic hatch in HS or the really old kart in F125 with my dad in Glen region. Love watching (or hearing, yikes!) your car. See you out there!

This thing makes a smart car look like a semi. Might be a little scary passing at 80 on the highway
