Steve;
I’m looking for any info on a hill climb car built by Dan Knap of Waterbury Center, owner of Werkstadt, who passed away in 2010. This was a single-seat mid-engined car, powered by a 914 air-cooled motor. I understand that the car was last raced in 2009.
I might have an interest in picking the car up and resurrecting it – any info you might have would be helpful. Thanks in advance,
Alan Shultz

Re: Dan Knapp
Remember no, but I can say he raced with us in 2007, 2009 and last at Philo in 2010. The car types listed are a Porsche 928, Porsche 924 and last something called "The Lucky Dog". He mostly ran number 128.
Re: Dan Knapp
He also autocrossed it at Stowe. Nice looking car, but I remember it being a little on the slow side.

Re: Dan Knapp
Don't think we need the dates. Thx.
Here is the car. Is this the car that went off directly above CP7?

Re: Dan Knapp
Sure looks like the one. I remember telling the driver the car was too low and too stiffly sprung for Ascutney at tech.
