i don't know much about it? Issac posted some info in ^^ post, but i don't know anything more about it i'll post and ask on FB sportscar race group i'm in, lots of US endurance race series guys there who might know more?
looking up SRV8 I find only these few bits, similarities there, so likely is the same car, now painted yellow is listed as: concept car, 1996 build, 2750 lbs weight, manual transmission (the diablo trans still maybe?) says it has a LS1 engine @ 350hp/365tq was spotted being driven in santa barbara, cali, 2007 Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
I recall it being transported on a truck recently. Not sure when, just going by memory. It got a Corvette engine (the M12 didn't use diablo trans.) I recall reading that they made a few changes, (to the Road Atlanta car) painted it yellow and took a few pictures. I'll see if I can find out more...
Here it is...just a post from another forum so I don't know much more or if its reliable info... " That car was the ex-race car that we ran at Road Atlanta in 1998. It was repowered and had a couple photos taken. The real shame was that this could have been a pretty good car. The chassis had some detail differences, the suspension pickup points had been moved from the other M12 chassis. This chassis was purpose built to be a race car so it was done a bit differently."
Apparently it is still with Randy Welty in California , former executive and owner at Vector in Florida.
There have never been any M12 as of today. These three WX3´s were made by Ban Seng in very limited numbers (30 each).
interesting, other readings suggested the white race car was in fact the yellow street car, cleaned up, however i notice several similarities, but also many differences share some more facts if you would about how/what you know on this? thanks
Oh wow! I saw that car last year at Jeff's Motor Cars in North Canton, Ohio. I wonder who has it now. Chris
Yeah, I'm not seeing either of the M12s on their website anymore, but I saw that and the yellow one at Jeff's Motor Cars last summer.

We have seen the yellow car around in the past years. It was or still is with Randy Welty, former executice (or even owner of) Vector Aeromotive in Florida. Pictures of the the white car were posted (about 5 years ago) in this forum by the owner from Canada.
interesting, do you recall what thread? I haven't at the moment, was an external search actually ....i'll look again for it
No, I do not recall after five years. But there is a slim chance that this was even in another forum. However, I am 80% sure it was here. There were apporximately 5 shots of the white racing M12 in a workshop some of which were even taken through the garage door´s windows IIRC. Unfortunately I lost these photos along with thousands of other Vector photos when my last hard drive crashed.
