Talk to some sponsors and discuss fundraising. Chump car is not cheap, and the logistics are more than just "yo lets go race". Making that first race with 4-5 participants is typically $1000-1400 for the first race per person. (goes way down from there and also depends on your build. Budget about $1200pp for an e30). This also does not include the truck/trailer you need for moving that car around. Radios/Fuel jugs/Hans/Fire Suppression/cage/seat/tires/brakes/fuel/canopies/chairs/night lights etc the list goes on... I would love to see MM attempt to do one, but we would need large fundraising and possibly some sponsors before you went down that road.
I have had an idea for MM participating in Paul and I's build but we need to agree on terms/conditions first before announcing it. Expect something by May on that.
For now, we are open to one "renter" driver for our chump car if anyone is interested. Looking at about $850 for a spot in the 24 hour VIR Chump Car team.
