amateur Hmm interesting comment. While it is true that one of the core values of Solo2 is "economical competition", just how would you write the rules such that a car would be excluded simply because

Remember, one of the reasons the Viper was classed out of Super Stock was because it was too expensive and thus out of the price range of those poor, low-bucks, Corvette drivers (and then the Mazdas

There are plenty of rules whose main purpose is to decrease car expenses (and others that increase them<s>). Also, cars that are very limited in production, are also more expensive. The rules that e

Ok, here's the deal guys, the RSR that Greg & Jodi drove is *NOT* state of the art technology, it's *LAST* years state of the art ;-) Also note that it can be had for right around $125k. Now if he br

You are kidding yourself if you think anyone can buy/build and develop a Nationals winning car for $10K. You gotta factor in the cost of modifications (even in Stock) and tires. Maybe it can be done

Not that we really need to argue about this, but I'd bet a fair bit of money that if you put Daddio in my $4.5k '95 Neon ACR with its $300 set of AR-24's, $700 set of tires (damn Kumho for not havin

125... for me, it gets more in the grey area. Not an obviously too expensive car for autocross (clearly not cheap either). Knowning that, and given that Greg is such a great driver and car prep pers

I do believe Bruce Cambern has owned his Cobra since day 1. You could get a 289 Cobra for a mere $5000 when new, and even less during the early 70s before the car nostalgia stuff kicked in. I didn't

I just have to add that the Fordahls don't own this car. They borrowed it. So, conceivably, we could all borrow a similar car, too, or even rent it for a weekend, which is still probably a lot cheape

== You forgot the best parts. You could drive the car to events (or to the grovery store), with A/C (depending upon the car's options), a decent stereo and still get 35 MPG. And that "extra" $2K wil
