Flip through any new MM&FF or 5.0 mag and you can see some of the sickest race cars ever built! Its amazing how many people actually have 100% state of the art race cars. The quality in the construction from bumper to bumper is outrageous. They have the best parts money can buy.
How can so many people afford that stuff? In the current issue of 5.0 Mike Duffy says that it typically costs $100,000 to have an Outlaw car like the majority of the people are running right now. $50,000 to $60,000 for a rolling chassis alone. Us do-it-yourselfers cant even comprehend the design that goes into one of these cars. The experience you pay for would be worth every penny.
Even the Hot Street cars are getting totally sick! The Drag Radial cars are totally nuts! Most of them are sub 9.0's on drag radials!! The Renegade and Real Street cars are also right there. The cars are just bad ass. Every placement of a bracket, every wiring harness, everything... its just amazing. The time and money invested just boggles me.
What do these people do for a living that allows them to race during an entire season, maintain the car, travel, build a new car every other season...etc... ??? Seems like everybody is doing it these days!
I would LOVE to drop a Fairmont off at Kim Smith's along with a blank check and come back in a month and pick up 7 second Outlaw Fairmont!!!!
To sum it up: I need to either find a Sugar Daddy, or get a job making crazy money... and I need to do one QUICK.
