    Question Brian Burgess Class 12 Car?

    Is there any information/talk on this car? This is the first time I have seen it, and I searched the forums to no avail.

    I have heard the semi-recent news about Brain, I was interested in finding information on the car (trying to clarify)

    It is a purpose built 12 car. It was never a 16 car. Work of art and 1st class all the way.

    The only race it ran, LDC 2007, it had second fastest lap time.....behind Pinkie of course!

    Have a nice day

    PAB is correct was a purpose built class 12 car about like a 16 car on steroids though! Chamberlain Motorsports bought it off of Brian after Laughlin. They only put test miles on it and it is now up for sale by Chamberlain Motorsports and is truly a work of art, I dont think you can really compare it to any previous 12 car.

    I dont know how I had heard it was a 16 car converted to 12 specs, I saw it at Laughlin though and it is indeed a very nice car.

    Re: Brian Burgess Class 12 Car?

    Definitely the first one of it's kind I have seen. I know there has been a lot of talk of bringing the succesful 16 car characteristics into the score-lite class, but I haven't seen it materialize until now.

    Does anybody know the weight?

    They are getting out of racing for now, cleaning house in the race shop look for more things to be up for sale in the near future.

    A little background on it at Laughlin we learned the hard way with gearing. The gearing has been fixed and the car is very fast.There is a few secrets on the new gearing but you would have to buy it to learn about them. I had to sell it after Laughlin because of my health problems and Chamberlain is getting out of racing.
    Maybe we should start a new Poll "Should Chamberlaim Motorsports Let Cheater race the car at Primm for his come back race" I will be the first vote "Yes"
