    You really think they stick to the "budget"? It just needs to look like you only spent 500 on it. Who's to say you get the motor for 100 bucks and do all the work yourself and only spend 150 in parts.

          I like it how intelligent discussion can be completely ruined by a single slack jawed baffoon.

            Irrelevant? I'm thinking that bringing up $40k R09 Chevy Nascar engines is irrelevant when the thread is about LeMons racing with a $500 limit on the whole car.
            When the government pays, the government controls.

                Anytime someone draws nascar out to prove anything the thread has died.

                      So how many times have you run a $500 car for 24 hours straight on a track?

                      If anything less than 1, you are talking out of your ass.

                          That's why they have been putting them in fords for evea!!

                          This thread is full of BULLSHIT.
                          FAIL!!!!

                          Lately, Chevy has dominated. A Chevrolet has won Nascar’s Sprint Cup title for seven straight years, and Chevrolet has won the manufacturer title for nine straight. And yet, since the cars all looked the same, many fans didn’t notice. While Dodge and Toyota also race in Nascar, no Toyota driver has won a title in Nascar’s premier series, and none has won in a Dodge since Richard Petty in 1975.

                            I hate to stir this shit pot more, but I'll try to explain how it works in actual reality rather than some smokey yunick trick engine.

                            We are talking About 500 bucks running and driving. So we don't have budgetary cash for a trip to the machine shop. So you take your average wrecked, high mile beater and strip it, cut the springs and get your saftey equipment tires and brakes handled. Therein lies the spirit of lemons : to put a $500 car together and in a safe manor, beat the everloving shit out of it for 1500 miles in a weekend. There are cars that do it without breathing heavy. Many others tend to do well for a bit, but most have engine or trans related failure at some point or another.

                            Now there are folks that go out to win an event that doesn't pay out enough to cover entry fees, and dump loads of cash into built engines, etc.

                            We haven't even pulled a valve cover on this engine or on our miata.

                              I'd be interested in knowing where the Miata engine is on the list. That thing of yours.... it must be a freak. The oil still looked/smelled new last time I looked. Good luck this weekend!

                              Ya'll seriously need to get some go pro shit and get some vids!!
