IF you could have put this unit together with the IP and cars from the ex-Toyota team and bribe enough expertise from Europe to visit America for a couple of years and got a realistic budget, this team might have had a chance.
As it was, they had 25% of the solution.
That was a mockup? I was under the impression they had a near-finished tub. I can only imagine what the FIA inspectors thought when they toured the shop.
Not even that, as one wheel was not enough, they needed 3 more due to stupid FIA regualtionsQuote:

That is right, 500 dollars US as one package deal....Missed my chance, as after that, I only would have needed three more wheels and a go cart engine and been racing....just like peter
that was a bargain, Id have had that for an at home f1 car simulator
