I am not dealing directly with the seller. It is being sold on consignment at a local Dealer Showroom...

Not sure what will be discovered... That is why I am ging to have a mechanic check it out first. Just looking for some pointers.

Picked it up last night and drove it home. Gunned it once for Alan too... :-)

Welcome to the journey. As long as you don't get too serious about things you're in for a fun ride.
Photos?
What are your first impressions?

Thanks. First impression is that it is a 400hp go-cart. I had a ZR-1 ages ago and this feels faster.

It is cold and winter here in the mitten so I probably won't schedule a photo shoot with my lovely assistants until it warms-up unless I can get the garage looking good...

It is a driver and I intend to use it as much as humanly possible in good weather!

Welcome to the madness! Be careful with the throttle until you get used to it.

No Kidding! This thing is a race car!
