BobbyZ Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 That guy is located just a few minutes from where I live. Apparently my uncle (another car nut) has met him. His showroom is mind blowing, I may have to stop by and see if he has that 240z on display. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMortensen Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 I thought the Frissell car sold in 2007? Maybe the buyers came to their senses when they realized they were writing a check for over $250,000 for a Z car... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffer949 Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 they are just slotted rotors you can see a secound slot if you look close Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junglist Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 pretty awesome, why does it run the 260 taillights? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_furious Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 That is indeed the Friselle car, and it was sold in 2007. It was at the '07 Monterey Historics: ...whether or not they gave up and sold it back to Canepa after one season, I don't know. I emailed Brad Friselle these photos afterward and he said he wasn't aware his car was racing again. I wasn't able to get the name of the owner or race team, unfortunately.

260DET Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 Transcontinental Racing? Both terriffic cars, thats what money is for, to buy cars like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jt1 Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 I wish somebody was repoping that Gnose/air dam/flare combo. What a sweet looking car. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnc Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 pretty awesome, why does it run the 260 taillights? Per the old IMSA rules. Cars had to appear to be current model vehicles so when the 260Z came out, the 240Z guys added the 260Z rear valance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgkurz Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 Beautiful car. The suspension is one of the the most modified I've seen on an S30. I do think this statement on the website is a bit optimistic.... "Producing over 400 HP coupled with a race proven chassis this car will be at the front of the grid at any historic IMSA event."

zlalomz Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 "Transcontinental Racing? " It says Transcendental Racing, I assume a play on the popular 1970s type of meditation. Another reference is on the rear of the car "What's it all mean?" Racing is the true meaning of life, right? Hybrid members have contributed more current pictures and some from back in the day on the IMSA tribute site listed in my signature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
