Tiga GT286

Information

Of the 8 Tigas built to IMSA Light specification for 1986, two were originally fitted with the Mazda twin-rotor engine. Sold new to Don Marsh, this is the first of that pair. Liveried in the distinctive Rusty Jones colours, it was raced in select IMSA rounds by Don Marsh, Kelly Marsh and Ron Pawley. The best result was a 13th overall and 2nd in class at the Riverside round. At the end of the 1986 season, it was retired from contemporary racing. The car was sold in 1987 and eventually ended up in Europe, where it was last seen at the 2015 Goodwood Festival of Speed
