Bruce, been there looked at that. Those things are pretty scary!!! Look at the roll bar specs they'll never pass SCCA safety.. CR PS You can buy an Invader kit for not much more maybe even the same price if you want a 600 in it..

In fact, one could buy a Predator Mini-Indy car in kit form for under $10k. Just add a 600cc motorcycle engine with car kit and you'd have a F5 car with wings, coil over shocks, and ARB for less than the cost of a ready-to-race F5 car. ...How'd dey doo dat? ----- Original Message ---- From: edward capullo To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, October 30, 2006 8:25:52 PM Subject: Re: [F500] Puck vs Shocks ad nauseam Bruce My F33A Beech Bonanza could land at 52mph (good for those slow corners) and had a straight line speed of 170KTs (195.5mph) which is a hell of a lot faster than any F500 or S2000 I've ever driven. What's wrong with wings..as a matter of fact we can now buy those soon to be worthless F1000 homebuilts (read non-Stohr) put our 494/493 Rotaxes in them and be ................F500!!!!
