Re: Want to race for real??

Hrm, so team four, that's $5000/4 ~~$1300 / 12 months ~~$125/month.

How crazy do people go for spare parts? Seems like you'd want to have spare axles, brakes, alternators...fuck, a whole spare engine/trans?

Wonder how much renting a race trailer and filling it with car/spares would end up costing. Does anyone just drive the car to the track and then drink beer and AAA it home when it breaks?

I have a spot on the side of my garage that I parked my bro's DSM in for a while...no room to work on it back there though. I suppose it's 'in the theme' to just buy a POS, race it, and then park it outside the rest of the year though, eh?
