FR500S for sale on eBay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...tem=160351789542&ssPageName=ADME:B:EF:US:1120
The only Ford racing car ever made right on the production line, as seen and raced in the highly-competitive Ford Racing Mustang Challenge Series. (www.mustangchallenge.com) Also eligible for SCCA and NASA. Brand new, never raced and absolutely perfect condition.
These cars originally sold new for $75,000. The "little brother" to the $125,000 Grand-Am championship-winning FR500C, the FR500S is capable of equal lap times and easier to drive because of less weight over the front axle.
Potential collectibility aside, the FR500S is a remarkably fast, fun, durable and safe car for track days or competitive racing.
In 2010, Miller Motorsports Park will run its own 14-race series featuring the FR500S - with the exciting option to compete in the professional Mustang Challenge events held in the spring and fall.
For complete specifications, see below. For additional information, please e-mail the Mustang Challenge Series director Lynda Randall at [email protected] or call 435-277-8004. This is a no reserve auction. Bid with confidence and good luck!
