This 1997 Camaro race car (W30-97) was built by Weaver Concepts ( Pancho Weaver) and was
their factory entry in the Trans-Am race series. Driven by Dino Crescentini and future multiple

Crescentini qualified the car 3rd at Long Beach in 1998. Tony Ave recorded its best finish of 3rd
place at Road America in 2000, leading the race until a flat tire dropped him to 3rd.

The car was purchased by Ralph Sanchez in 2003. Ralph Sanchez was a Florida Real Estate
developer and notably developed and built the Homestead Motor Speedway. Sanchez raced
the car in SCCA GT1 events from 2003 through 2011. The logbook from these SCCA events is
included with the car.

The car was purchased by Steve Foster in 2012. He never raced the car as he was unable to
pass his physical exam.

The car was purchased by its current owner in 2012 and immediately was disassembled for a
thorough restoration. The chassis was powder coated. The engine was completely rebuilt by a
professional builder and dynos at 750+ HP. All suspension joints were replaced and the Brake
system was upgraded to handle the increased HP. The car has only run 2 events since its
complete restoration and has less than 3 hours of total time on it. The Fuel cell was replaced in
2019. The car is prepped and ready to run as it stands.
