Description:

The latest SR-71 chassis has been the fastest Sports 2000 car at every
Run-offs it has attended. (Simmons, Gnazzo, and Johnson at Road
Atlanta.) Certainly some of this speed came from Steven Johnson serving
as race engineer for each of these events; However, Steven is also the
mastermind behind this chassis' design: one which typically utilizes the
Lola 598 as its basis. Although modifications include minor alterations
to the tub and front suspension geometry, the chassis' major superiority
comes from a thorough redesign of the car's rear half. Additional
custom valving of Koni shocks, and significant aerodynamic modifications
contribute further to the package. The primary objective of the
chassis' structural design is to provide an incredibly rigid platform
for the suspension to work from. this allows the use of very soft
springs, and gains the requisite mechanical grip. Other cars add spring
rate to compensate for inadequate structural integrity, and sacrifice
both mechanical grip and "feel." With the Swift, this is compounded by
the body’s substantial inability to generate adequate downforce.

History

This particular car was the last SR-71 built. Ed Breault has
campaigned the car in the Northeast for the last few years.

• Tubs
  
  
  
  • Complete tub from the car which won the National Run-offs with Chris Simmons, and
    set the Road Atlanta lap record with Michael Gnazzo. It is perhaps the
    most successful S2 Tub in existence, winning the vast majority of its
    races with Chris Simmons, Michael Gnazzo, and Steven Johnson. The floor
    has been removed for replacement, as has the front bulkhead (not a
    result of crash damage, rather an unfinished structural
    redesign/upgrade.). It does however, have battle scars from an
    extremely fast, and accordingly hard, life. Interestingly, the scars
    happened before its Runoffs successes, and there is no reason it
    shouldn’t be as fast as ever, although a bit rough around the edges.
