Re: My ChumpCar experience

Yeah, lights come off quick with 2 big arse bolts, but we've had them on for some night/early morning driving we've had to do, and testing and whatnot.

For us, the spare engine isn't so much about winning (cause you definitely can't win after being out of the race long enough to swap the engine). We just want to maximize fun and driving time! And this year we've actually tested our spare engine.

Removing and installing an engine in an MR2 is not fun.
