How A $500 Craigslist Car Beat $400K Rally Racers http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets...erme_night.jpg http://jalopnik.com/5497042/how-a-50...k-rally-racers This is the multifaceted tale of Bill Caswell, a man who bought a crapcan off Craigslist to run against $400,000-plus rally cars in a World Rally Championship race. It is a tale of a guy who had a welder, a bunch of credit cards, and a lot of free time but no real backing or funds. It is a story of a dude who taught himself how to build an FIA-legal roll cage because he wanted to spend the fabrication fee on race tires instead. It's the story of a gearhead who drove a rustbucket to a third-place finish in an FIA-sanctioned event. Had to share this story linked on another forum! Warmed my gearhead heart :) |
