Looks like they took the overall win at the GRM $2011 challenge in thier V8 E30. Well done!

Anymore pictures? Build thread?

I was wondering how it turned out this year. Did Vorshlag even get one run on the strip?

The car's paint job looks pretty cool.

This is a question to just better understand the 'challenge'. It is supposed to be a 2011 dollar car correct? Minus selling stuff... I see a ton of these challenge cars and think to myself... How on earth is this happening? 2011 + 1005.50... V8 E30?



#

All builders shall spend no more than $2011 on their cars. The purchase price of the car must be equal to or less than $2011. Title fees, registration and insurance are not counted toward the budget. Shipping (or transportation costs) of the car and parts used in the building process must be counted toward the budget.
#

All parts used at the event (including multiple sets of tires) shall be part of that $2011 budget.
#

Parts that are not used may be traded or sold up to the initial cost of the car or parts deal. In other words, if you buy a $500 Challenge car, you can recoup up to $500 of your budget by selling parts. (If you do turn a profit by selling parts from your car, we suggest that you take your significant other out to dinner to compensate them for having a $2011 car hanging around the house.) Once the recuperation limit has been reached on a car or parts deals, trading is not allowed.
#

The maximum amount of money that can be recouped in a budget is $1005.50. This includes parts cars, parts deals and the Challenge car itself.
#

Parts that are given to the competitor by a company or person must be figured into the budget at fair market value. Sponsorships are allowed, but the value of any product or service that is used in building the car must be figured into the $2011 budget.

Seen the thread. On bf.c too(quite a bit longer as well there) and read that thread. Just wondering how you make that happen. There is some crazy stuff that shows up and runs in these events.

I was reading GRM magazine and there are C5 corvettes, Factory Five roadsters, etc in the challenge. How does someone build those for $2011?

Wow that's awesome and a much better result than last year. I know they have put in an insane amount of time into that car. Nice work guys!
