Edit: If worst comes to worst, does the F1 class allow the Keil F1 cars?
You got a Keil F1! How cool is that! Can't find them here. We would love to see them in next years F1 Challenge.

I think MLP has stopped just doing the bodies, from what Marty told me it was just taking him too much time and would only supply a body with a chassis as well.

You might want to double check though

Not exactly, but I do have pan cars and would be willing to buy this chassis kit (which is as close to a Keil w/o being a Keil) if they would allow me to run.

A guy at my track has one and it's a very nice piece of work. Tempted to buy one anyway as I'm an F1 fan.

I believe we will find a spot for you to race with the Keil F1, depending on how it handles the track it would be put in either the Pan class or the F1 class, I'm not too familiar with the car so I can't say for sure what class you would be able to run in

It's an AE pan car with an F1 chassis basically.

It looks very nice, I'm sure if you have something like that we will have no problems finding a race for you,

there are a couple of i think HPI F1's around the club as well, they tend to race every couple of weeks so there should be no problem finding a place for you to race.

You'll be lucky to find a Keil anywhere. I think that kit is from 98 or something and very few were made.

I posted a link earlier for what is as close as possible to a Keil as I can find. It uses AE pan car parts with an F1 chassis. It's also possible to use the Tamiya or HPI front suspension on this car too.

You're not going to find one and you're probably not going to get an answer from them. I have actually seen the one in the pictures, it was a guy at AE that was driving it, Keil sent it to them to do the pictures and the manual. I have only seen one other one in North America and that was bought from a guy on eBay in Germany.

I tried about 4 years ago the same avenue of contacting them directly and got nothing... The RCIndycars use a better 3 rear shock design then then the single shock design of that Keil and you can still get the parts for those cars.
