Classic Race Cars for Sale
Motorised racing has existed since the car was first invented. Over the years, various professional bodies have solidified the rules into the familiarity of Formula 1, the World Rally Championship, Le Mans, Group B and many more. With each generation, new cars and drivers enter the history books and the legacy of classic race cars grows ever richer.
Classic Racing Life
Classic race cars represent the pinnacle of performance from different periods in driving history. Each one is a finely tuned machine, most will outperform any average, modern road car with ease, and it certainly does not hurt that they look a hundred times better than the homogenised range of the modern city car. For collectors, owning classic race cars is like owning a little piece of history except that in many cases they are also capable of getting a more in-depth feel for that history by being able to drive the car.
Classic Race Car Owners
Of course, the classic race cars would be little more than inert piles of machinery without their drivers. Ray Evernham is a classic race cars owner who has done it all. He has raced professionally, worked as a crew chief, car owner and as a consultant. Now he has turned his racing career success into a huge classic race cars collection and museum. Sometimes famous collectors start not as drivers but as avid enthusiasts. Jerry Seinfeld is the proud owner of over 150 classic cars of all types including a large classic race car selection. At one point the comedian owned 46 Porsches alone including a 1959 Porsche RSK Spider that was later sold at auction.
Classic Race Cars
Over the years, various classic race cars of varying makes and models have risen to prominence. It is hard to think of racing without thinking of Formula 1 and within the sport the McLaren MP4/4 was part of one of the most successful car and driver pairings, winning 15 out of 16 races in 1988. In the world of Group B Rally, the Peugeot 205 T16 is possibly the most iconic classic race car. Then there is the Maserati 250F, this classic race car was a work of art though its elegant design did not stop it from winning two world championships.
Classic Race Car Buying
The best way to find classic race cars is to look for other collectors and enthusiasts. Classic race cars are not going to be found just anywhere so the best place to start looking is in auctions. Find out where the local car auctions are held and then ask around there if there have been any classic race cars sold or if there are any plans to do so in the near future.
