Don,
Yes I noticed those things as well. Would love to see the engine bay
configuration and which transaxle it ran. Must be on 8 & 10 inch wheels. No
wing for the high speed banking.
Cheers. David

David,
This is a very interesting car, definitely a Bobsy SR 5 or 6 chassis, BUT
different with the tub extended to the rear wheel well. The SR 5 and 6 tubs
ended just behind the doors, and the SR 6 had a fiberglass section to the rear
wheels. The SR 4 had the front of the tub extended to the FRONT wheel wells,
without the angled front wheel tub of the SR 5 and 6.
The intake scoop appears to be for an inline 4 cylinder engine, presumably a
BMW as indicated on the side of the car.
Don

Anybody know anything about this Bobsy that I stumbled upon off the internet?
1973 Daytona 24 hour race, driven by Raymond Gage, Jim Grob, and Gary Ouellette.
Listed as a Lotus 23 with a 2 liter BMW engine. Obviously not a Lotus. (DNF)
SR5 with SR6 body or SR6?
