The car used a naturally-aspirated 4-litre BMW V8 engine throughout its racing life. The car proved to be uncompetitive, and its fastest race laps were frequently well off the pace of the other runners. Racing historyThe Argo P made its competitive debut at the 24 Hours of Daytona in 1997, which was the opening round of the IMSA GT Championship; Davin Racing entered Mark Montgomery, Edd Davin and Butch Brickell in the car.[1] It was not a successful debut; the car was still running at the end of the race, but it had only completed 279 laps, which saw the team finish 57th overall, and 11th in the WSC class.[2] Davin and Montgomery were selected to drive the car in the following race, which was the 12 Hours of Sebring, but the team did not actually attend the event.[3] The pair were also entered in the Grand Prix of Atlanta, but finished down in 16th; their fastest lap, a 1:26.699, was nearly six seconds slower than the next-slowest car.[4] The Lime Rock Grand Prix was similarly unsuccessful; Montgomery and Davin finished 14th, and second-to-last, with a fastest lap that was 4.8 seconds slower than any other car.[5] The team persevered with the car for the next event, which was the Six Hours at the Glen; an accident after 46 laps forced them out of the race, and resulted in Davin and Montgomery being classified 37th overall, and 15th in the WSC category.[6] At the Californian Grand Prix, the car lasted for just eleven laps, before differential failure forced the team out, and saw them classified in 18th.[7] Davin drove the Argo P on his own at the Mosport Festival, but steering failure after just one lap forced him to retire the car.[8] After seven unsuccessful races, Davin Racing replaced the Argo P with a Buick-engined Kudzu DLM for the Grand Prix of Las Vegas,[9] and the Argo P was never raced again.[10] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.racingsportscars.com/gallery/Daytona-1997-02-02.html |title=Daytona 24 Hours 1997 – Photo Gallery |publisher=Racing Sports Cars |accessdate=16 August 2013 }}{{dead link|date=July 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} 2. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.racingsportscars.com/results/Daytona-1997-02-02.html |title=Daytona 24 Hours 1997 – Race Results |publisher=Racing Sports Cars |accessdate=16 August 2013}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.racingsportscars.com/results/Sebring-1997-03-15.html |title=Sebring 12 Hours 1997 – Race Results |publisher=Racing Sports Cars |accessdate=16 August 2013}} 4. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.racingsportscars.com/results/Road_Atlanta-1997-04-20.html |title=Road Atlanta 2 Hours 1997 – Race Results |publisher=Racing Sports Cars |accessdate=16 August 2013}} 5. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.racingsportscars.com/results/Lime_Rock-1997-05-26.html |title=Lime Rock IMSA WSC 1997 – Race Results |publisher=Racing Sports Cars |accessdate=16 August 2013}} 6. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.racingsportscars.com/results/Watkins_Glen-1997-06-01.html |title=Watkins Glen 6 Hours 1997 – Race Results |publisher=Racing Sports Cars |accessdate=16 August 2013}} 7. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.racingsportscars.com/results/Sears_Point-1997-07-13.html |title=2 h Sears Point 1997 – Race Results |publisher=Racing Sports Cars |accessdate=16 August 2013}} 8. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.racingsportscars.com/results/Mosport-1997-08-31.html |title=Mosport 2 Hours 1997 – Race Results |publisher=Racing Sports Cars |accessdate=16 August 2013}} 9. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.racingsportscars.com/results/Las_Vegas-1997-09-20-3778.html |title=2 h Las Vegas – Race Results |publisher=Racing Sports Cars |accessdate=16 August 2013}} 10. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.racingsportscars.com/type/results/Argo/P.html |title=All Results of Argo P |publisher=Racing Sports Cars |accessdate=16 August 2013}} 2 : Sports prototypes|Argo Racing Cars |
