I think that they tried to sell this car a couple of months ago. I guess that it didn't reach the reserve at that time.

Y'know - vintage racing means (to me anyways) that you are driving a bunch of old stuff around the track at close to suicidal speeds. This is a modern race car in an old Tiger body.

In order to get that kind of horsepower out of such a small engine, he has to rev the hell out of it. If you watch the U-Tube video, it sounds like he brings it up to about 8,000 rpm !!!
