Default Who wants a TRG Cup Car

Looks like TRG will be selling one of their Cup cars at the end of the Daytona 24.
Not a bad price, wish I had the money.

Do you get your money back if they total the car or will they just hand you the pieces? Yes, I know it says they will repair it, but...

I wonder if the buyer will be allowed in the hot pits during the race (after all, he or she will be effectively be the car owner, that would be a very cool benny)

"Will be delivered in as-is condition". Blown transmission, engine knock and all!

I see nothing wrong with buying a car that was only used on the weekend. Besides what could possibly go wrong in a 24-hour endurance race..............

No CRAP!! You would have to be a degenerate gambler to hand them the $$ for that. How generous of them to offer it though!

$155k! That's pretty steep for a pit pass.

That advertisement is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever seen!! Who in their RIGHT MIND would spend $155K on a car BEFORE the 24??? "Delivered as is"??? Give me a break...
