Believe me I know how nuts it sounds and it kills me to be doing it.
Problem is I am still a good $25k+ short of rolling up to a start line. If I cut my losses now while most of the parts are still brand new and in their boxes, motor is new etc, it is going to end up costing me the same or less to get into an already fully developed car, built to the rule book, with proven pace, that is also pretty fresh.
Most of the parts will be sold off.
Trying to work out the best thing to do with the shell. Will probably still put it in paint and get it for the most part back together so it's an attractive option for someone wanting to build a caged car. If I can convince the missus that nobody wants it for long enough to get enough cash back together I might end up keeping it. Still very attached and would love to see it back together in my garage.
Anyway - no signed sealed deal done as yet but its in the works.
