Hey all,

I just closed yesterday on chassis 856. It’s a 2013 1340cc. Many thanks to Charley for answering a few questions and creating this forum. It seems to be in good shape but I will be making it better. We are removing the old wrap for a new one and getting everything cleaned and looking new again. Looking forward to meeting everyone. My home track is Road America but we travel to Blackhawk and Autobahn too.

 

Ben

@cirrusdriver

Can you share your impressions and/or contacts for the vinyl graphics drawings?  Were they prepared for use of custom printing or using standard vinyl colors?

I purchased the car from Team Stradale. They recommended a company that has wrapped a lot of theirs. So far I just have the rendering so I can’t speak of their work. I should know in a week or so assuming they can find time to wrap it. The name of the company is cutting edge graphics.

Ben, welcome to the group!  Congrats on the car, I know you're going to like it.  

Gobble and I are both from the Menomonee Falls Wisconsin area so will be running the same tracks as you.  We also have a couple more Radicals that run Brainerd raceway in MN.  

What groups do you plan to run with?  Are you going to race the car or do track events with it?

Wow that’s great to have another local running. Send me a message with your contact info if you get a chance. I don’t plan on doing any racing at this point. I plan on doing as many DE days as my schedule allows. It’s my understanding Team Stradale is trying to organize some radical track days as well. Right now I have signed up for the Shelby Club event in April and the MVP event at Road America. I also signed up for some RA track days but those are street legal only so will run the GT3z I would like to do something at Autobahn in early April if they have an opening so I can make any adjustments before the longer weekends at RA. Looking forward to meeting you guys. What generation cars do you have?

Regards

Ben

Ben,

We have chassis 860 so Gen II.  Normally run two up with my wife.  We've only had the car for a little over a year but run a bunch of DE and I race with SCCA when we have a chance to get away.  We've also been running with MVP, Grid Life, and 3 Balls Racing.  If you want to jump to the other side of the pond, 3 balls is the best we've found to run with so far.  Just enough rules and regs to keep things safe, can pass without point by in their advanced group.  Great bunch to run with if you like Gratten and Gingerman.  They're a little less expensive and have a no BS approach to events.  Just go out and run.

Will send you my contact info.  I know of 4 of us in the area, it would really be nice to do events with a few other radicals.
