It's just amazing how much crap it takes to run a pro race operation.

Someone is losing their ass over this!

The Team Australia (formerly Walker Racing) Champ Car team bought one or two of Panther's transporters.

Sucks how a two-time consecutive championship team could fold three years after their championship.

So Tony George, what was that about "affordable racing"?

Now there's rumours (so far unsubstantiated) of a new IRL team called "Yellow Ribbon Racing" that would depend on "patriotic donations" to fund the team. This team would probably give the US Armed Forces a bad name.

I wanted to buy the Longacre scales but they were $400 as of yesterday. My budget for them was $500 so I blew off the auction this morning. I figured they would easily top $500 after a buyers premium. Since word of this auction spread like the clap all over the interweb last week, the chances of getting a real bargain are slim.

Re: Wanna start your own IRL team? (GChambers)
 

I was watcing those scales also, they just went for $1,700. A little over my budget also.

Yeah... People are spending a lot of money on this stuff. I have a feeling I'm not going to win one of the 2005 IRL cars with my $425 bid... https://honda-tech.com/forums/images/smilies/emsad.gif

Re: Wanna start your own IRL team? (GChambers)
 

There are different models though. The one for $1K is the cheapest, going up to $2-3K for the top-of-the-line models.

Wow... some of the trailers are going for cheap. If only I had a truck to put them on...

so did anyone get the irl cars for 3k? haha

Sure, but the $1k set would probably weigh stuff just as well as the more expensive sets. BTW, the most expensive set of longacre scales I have sever found are $1700 brand new. Still doesn't look like a bargain to me.

Re: Wanna start your own IRL team? (GChambers)
 

I can't find the ads I had seen, but there were definitely some over $2K. They had bigger weight ratings, bigger pads, different computer displays. I agree that the $1K one would be just as good as any of the others, but if it was like a super uber setup, $1700 might be a reasonable deal.
