I have been looking around and trying to figure the good and bad points of the different makes of vintage legal formula vee's. At this point I am leaning towards a Lynx. So please impart your wisdom and experience the good and bad etc. I know the 1200 bug engines are getting in short supply, but I don't plan to run many events per year, plus one of my closest friends is a brilaint aircooled vw engine builder.
If you know of a vintage legal vee for sale please let me know. I am located in Pittsburgh, Pa. and I am not afraid to travel!!!
And for those that recommend SR Racing, that add for a wanted vee in Pittsburgh isn't mine
Seems there is a like minded individual near me
Thanks
Paul
Color me interested as well. Though I simply want to use the Formula slider in a project similar to that Glocker that got posted a few days back.
Is anyone running a 1600cc super class where you live. I thought most groups had gone that way after all the 1200cc stuff dried up. That would cut the costs way down.

Was in the crazy build thread. Short answer this body on top of a formula Vee chassis. Its for sale at a little under 40K. Straight up no lie at 20-22K like a normal 550/RSK replica I would cut the man a check tomorrow.
I've seen that Glocker replica in person at a couple local cars and coffee events, the owner lives in Minnesota. It's a very cool little car.
If you are interested n the formula V Genre, you could do a lot worse than give this guy a call.
Greg Rice has been involved in the sport for pretty much his whole life and now runs a small stable of formula V cars under the "Rice Race Prep" banner. Google for more info so I don't end up floating downstream! Or shoot me a PM and I can provide contact info. If there is a car hiding under a basket somewhere, I suspect Greg will know about it.
