It’s a great look!

All right then, keep your secrets. But seriously, looks like you're having fun with your race car. Amateur racing has always been something I've wanted to get into and it looks like you're enjoying it!

I got invited to the team this year. Older 2 series BMW. Car is solid. Not crazy fast. But, it did well on test day. Specs? I just smoosh pedals with feet and turn round thing!

That’s what I was shooting for!

Smoosh pedals and turn the round thing is solid strategy. I wish you the best in your future races!

It would be easier if there wasn’t a stick thingy that you have to shove around while pushing EXTRA foot smooshy thing! Did I mention other Freedom Juice Conveyances? So many race cars! It’s a Madhouse. Wish me luck.

It's an E36 3-series, not a 2-series. Still. Lemons should be fun!

My cousin is out there with you guys.
I’ve been wanting to make a team for a few years, me and my buddies used to all race so if I could convince them we would have a really solid team.
Almost impossible to find a running $500 car nowadays that’s would be worth a damn on a track.

Realistically, what was the cost for the safety equipment? I got invited to a team next year and trying to figure out how much of an investment it will be.
oldmanshiba OP t1_iub5r7v wrote
I am not sure. The brothers that own the car did 99% of the work themselves. The roll cage was a lot of work. Total they have 100+ hours in. I think a roll cage install is 3K or so to have installed.

Well, you can also buy a Lemons car for $3,500-5,000. The bill of sale will say $500, and they add 3k to the sale for safety equipment.

Wow! Harsh! Mullets and racing overlap pretty strong on the Venn diagram of motorsports.

What are you driving? Would love to know the specs on that
