Thank so much guys! This has really helped me out a lot. I just updated my build thread in my sig if you want want to see what ive been up to.

The airborne bit was fun :) the landing... not so much..

It was mostly superficial damage, the wheel movement was cause but the camber bolts loosening on impact. quite lucky in the end.

With this sort of stuff, people(me) have no idea what it takes to get this sort of a car going.

What about a parts "wish list"

like..... tyres x 3 = $400

Good question.

I don't know what James is up for but this is a typical, budget cost for an event:

License $100-$400

Entry $200-500

Tyres $300-500ea. So $1200-$4000 depending on which tyre and if you can afford 2 sets.

Fuel $100-$200 for 98 or e85. $300-$400 for race fuel

Brake pads $200-$500 per set

Fuel to tow the car to the track $200

Driver and crew accommodation $50pp per night

Driver and crew food $50pp per day

Driver and crew booze: depends on win or lose. Lose is more expensive

Plus prep on the car, say $5000-$100000. Or 3-5 times that for a front running superlap car.

So, I reckon every 50 bucks someone can spare will help a great cause
