Just as the title states guys, how much do you have overall into your current SFWD car or project (estimated)? This should include the car itself, and any and all expenses related to building it, tuning it, etc.

I'm curious to see if any of us can truly face how much money we've sank into these cars...

Does this include the cost of a truck and trailer setup?

You should have a more detailed poll, like a percentage of the work you did vs outsourcing for each amount.

People can post that if they'd like... but this is just H-T, it's not a scientific cross-examination theory testing poll... it's just for fun

You should also figure out a way of how to incorporate Track results. E.t's and mph's. Because i wonder how many of those 20-30k ones are in the high to mid 9's going 150+mph in sfwd trim.

rip94delsol

i am approaching the 20k mark and the car has yet to run a 1/4 mile...

I guess you guys should have built a Neon LOL, last count was around $4000. I did
all the work myself, donated some old parts form the Red car. I also got
some sponcer parts like the turbo-intercooler, Mega Squirt and converter.

Ok it's not competative yet with a 10.7 but it will have another 100-125hp this year. I figure low low 10's....
