Vehicle Description
For the relaunch in 2010, Van Diemen was selected as the supplier
of the spec chassis for the series. Initially, the car was named
the Van Diemen DP08 the car was renamed �lan DP08 after Van Diemen
was fully integrated into the latter.
The car was initially designed to compete in the SCCA Formula
Continental ranks but was heavily upgraded to run in the USF2000
series.
The upgrades included a stronger steel spaceframe, improved side
crash boxes and new brakes.
Elite Engines was selected as the sole engine builder for the
series.
The company headed by former driver Steve Knapp builds the engines
before shipping them to the Andersen Promotions headquarters.
This race car was one of two that came to us from the Cooper Tires
racing team, one of which was a championship car!
Since owning this car we have upgraded it with performance Wilwood
brakes.
