Is your intention to run this in the 2006 challenge? I have always maintained that the winner should have to sell his car to them for the challenge price. i.e. $2006 then the car becomes the prize for the next years winner. This would eliminate all the cheating that goes on in there. I know for a fact a MR2 that runs has way more than $2000 in it. You would think twice about competing if you had to give up the car. The initial objective was to take a junker and get it set up enough to run. Some of these cars are running 11 second 1/4 miles and tearing up the Autocross like a top dollar car.
My thoughts exactly. The winner last year was a V8 RX-7. They came up with the $2000 after selling motor for $1500. On what planet is a non-turbo RX-7 motor that much? Maybe $500.

It would be fun to just try it but no chance of my car finishing in the top 10.
