My thoughts were a modified Opal GT. Not sure though.

Hey, just good to know you're OK. Looks like a big moment.

Not metal fatigue, poor design.

Same concept

All I know is you can buy one for around $6-12k depending on how it's equipped and setup. Apparently they are super inexpensive to run and most road race guys don't know about them as they were supposed to be circle track cars.

Yeah they were supposed to be a step up from Legends, and are built by the same crews.

I am a fan of Dwarf cars because they are cheaper and use more up to date packages than the old Yamaha engine.

in the NASA-SE region, the Thunder Roadsters are one of the fastest growing classes. in the past two years we have gone from 2 -3 cars to 11 - 12 cars with more on the way.
