These guys work regular jobs, not sure what they do, but this is weekend stuff for them. I'm pretty sure this is just a toy that they can rally in local events, I don't think it's a customer car, so labour is "free" just like anyone here building a hobby anything wouldn't charge themselves for the labor, whether it's RC airplane, horse trailer, scale model of the Taj Mahal....

I think the main guy just has a great brain for working this stuff out in addition to a pair of very skilled and patient hands. I feel lucky to be able to watch.
