Good point. But (playing devils advocate here), wouldn't a studio be "professional". And, what if the pay was 25,000?

If it's $25,000 you can always use the cash to buy another ITR.

If that's the case, I'd do it.

You would have to be on crack to let somebody use your R for a movie who knows what the stunt man would do to it. Look at the F@F they will rice it out jump it and pump it full of Nawwwwwwwwwwwwws. Nobody barows my car I dont even let the dealership drive it unless I am in it.

Not exactly. Just asking. I was offered today, haven't given it a lot of thought yet. I thought it would be a good topic.

the chances that they actually used NOS on those cars is slim, unless you really believe they would race and setup up the EMS at the same time.

Let them the car. $25,000 is $25,000. You can buy another ITR if anything happens.

Seriously, for 25k, you could put in a new (better) motor, new tires, new clutch, new brakes, and re-paint the car, should something go wrong, and still be money ahead. Plus you'd get mad props for chillin the the theater, sayin, "Yea, I'm the pimp, that's my car right there..."

No Brainer.
