What’s a team? Four to six people with a (feasibly) $500 car. Whether the team forms around an existing car or comes together to build a new one will depend on your approach. The former is the cheaper option but relies on a decent, already-caged car being available for sale. On occasion, turnkey cars surface on the Lemons forum. Worst case, you cou...
Assuming you have your car in order, the next hurdle is the safety gear required for racing. Helmet, boots, fire suit, gloves, underclothing, and neck restraints. This is a place where you can share as much gear as possible to save money, provided your teammates don’t mind each others’ cooties, but there is one corner that can’t be cut: The rulesma...

Our makeshift fuel gauge (a multimeter hooked to the fuel level sensor) ran out of batteries and didn’t tell us the car was empty. We burned out a starter trying to crank it without gas and had to peel off the in...
Murphy’s law is an adage to which there is an element of truth. You may earn enough black flags to be kicked out. Your car might suffer race-ending damage. You might not pass tech inspection. You might even blow the turbo on your tow rig before the race weekend arrives. The ability to feel schadenfreude when looking in a mirror is critical for anyo...
