The $50,000 service is quite something. I was just told of some $2,200+ battery change charge on someone's Cup car. Obviously there is a surprising number of people for whom a $50,000 service charge is just another utility bill to pay.
This whole racing game is very addictive though. In fact I have discovered that it is people like that (although obviously not Cup car drivers - but still very wealthy people) who make it possible for outfits like SpeedWerks to exist and do so well. Fascinating how those businesses work. So few people get to do work that they really love to do, and these guys are part of that lucky small crowd.

Of course the thing with the Cup cars is that you can also earn money while the others just do it for the sake of enjoying it.

Looking forward to hearing about the RS when you get it. Any news about the rebuild of your 930?
