Didn't see it run and there was no one around it in the paddock when I was there:

I don't know anything about it and have onlt seen it in one other picture before. It looks like a fun one to blast around the track with. But what's the deal with the ginormous wing??

I think that belongs to Charleys buddy; saw it at HAN last year.

That's John Gilligans...His buddy Gary Guthrie has a similar one. LS powered, really fast.

Somewhere on Youtube there is video of it at Laguna Seca last weekend.

I was going to say, that looks an awful lot like Gary's car... Gary lives about 2 miles from me. Haven't seen Gary's car finished though, last time I was over at his house with Jim Dyer to see it assembly was nearly complete but the body was still in primer. If that car is like Gary's then it's full C5 underneath including IRS and transaxle, IIRC Wayne Due did the chassis work initially. Neat track car for sure!

Here's the video of John's car at Laguna:

Also, up in the Sacramento area there is a mid-engined first gen track car that is in work...

Extra cool. Are they just track cars or do they run NASA AIX or something?

that is cool.

Thanks for the video! That is one hell of a car.
