Metcalf Racing - Race Car Rental

Race Car Rentals

Owning, maintaining and campaigning a race car can be expensive. We try to control costs for our clients but sometimes the economics just do not lend themselves to owning a car. If you merely want to try a specific type of car or class, want to run only a limited number of races or even if you just want to simplify your tax return, renting a car might be the proper choice at certain times. When such a time arises, we have several cars from which to choose. If you do not see the car you are interested in renting here, please contact us. We have a wide scope of resources and may be able to provide the car you want, open wheel or closed. Lapping days and driver coaching sessions are also available.

Lola T-540 Club Formula Ford
SCCA Club Ford
Vintage F-70

Many of you in Texas and the Midwest know Pete Hoekenga and his fast blue Lola. Pete has won most of the vintage FF races in the area during the last few years and he has now made his car available for rent for either vintage or other Formula Ford races. This car is exceptionally good and Pete has set FF lap records for vintage and Club Ford cars at many of the tracks he has run. It uses a strong, low time engine and a gearbox always in good shape. If you want to win in Vintage or Club Ford, this is the car you need. When you rent his car, you will also receive full preparation in our shop prior to the event and assistance from our crew at the track. The car includes many spares including gears for almost any track.

Cost for a 3 day weekend is only $1750. This is a true arrive and drive program where you need not even get your hands dirty unless you want to. Fuel, tires, entry fees, etc. are extra.

Why not plan on running this Lola at the next FF Festival? Perhaps you might also want to run it a couple of times prior to that event to get used to it. Multiple race and seasonal discounts are available. Please let us know your needs. We can work out a program to fit. For more information on driving this car, please click here.

Van Diemen RF97 Formula Continental
SCCA Formula Continental

We have just been through this RF97 with fresh paint, all new AN fasteners, new triple Penskes, new Willians belts and everything else required to make it right. It really showed well the very first time we took it out, at Texas Motor Speedway for the SCCA Double National where Nathan Thompson scored a second place finish in the first race on

Saturday. A spin put him out on Sunday. In order to keep the car on form, we have quite a list of spares including many gear sets, two different rear wings, two different diffusers, a complete spare nose box with a variety of front wing flaps. We also have many new suspension parts, including most A-arms and a wide variety of springs. The engine is a Steve Knapp from Elite and is only three races old. It is equipped with a Pi Dash and a CDS logger. This is a car in which you can win most SCCA divisions in Formula Continental and at least push the front runners hard at the Runoffs. A fully supported two day event with this car, including engineer, is $2000. You pay tires, fuel and travel. A three day weekend is $2750. Please contact us to discuss your plans.
