[oleblue]

why is this being auctioned off by the us marshalls ?

[MJProcko]

a little late, how many years has it been now? 4? How out of date will the tour cars be.... might make a great SK light though.

[TnLRacing]

Outdated? The car that Ryan Preece drove this past weekend to a 2nd place finish was built in 1996 by lenny. Those cars will be competitive in the right hands.
The bigger problem with those cars is the fact that the Tour cars are Kuhnel/Stefanik designs. With out the jigs to make the parts they might be a bit difficult to repair if there is a crash. However Art Barry may bable to use his jigs to make the parts for them.
I believe the original X6 jigs from Peter Beal are now owned by the Perry family

why do some people think that if its not a brand new car, it's out of date?
the technology hasn't changed that much.
bolt on parts have changed some,yes but the BASICS haven't.

Is it made public info (except for those there) on who buys it and for how much?

I'm sure that FOI requires public disclosure. It might not make the front page of the New York Times, but if you ask you should be able to get the info.

[Skorge]

Wonder why it take so long

[NONCENT$]

Dont be surprised if "someone who looks identical" to TC shows up to bid on all the equiptment, as TC will be down south racing. The jig was not confiscated with the rest of the items taken by the Feds.
TC is not in the 36 next year!

[Bobby1717]

Is that definate that he is not running the 36 or is that rumors swirling around the pit area?

[NONCENT$]

Im sorry....I dont want to be someone who starts rumors, or stories, without naming resources, or having proof. Let me state this: My guess is that TC will not be in the 36 next year, and Im guessing the car owner of the 36 might not return to the mod tour. That's why Im guessing he may be interested in the auction!
Remember....Just a guess!
Thanks
