Coming from a off road background, I know plenty of good fab guys.

This is one of my good friend's eight truck that was built in his garage

Looks like too much rebound My son raced Lucas Oil Stadium truck - I agree EVERYTHING on the truck is one off and when you crash it - you have 2 hours to fix it or less

I have a couple of friends who have penhall class 1 buggies. I have been the crash dummy (navigator) in the second seat on both of them. We have so much travel going thru the whoops I enjoys a nice latte while reading poetry. I thought drag racing was expensive until I entered off road. With fixing the cghassis, to buying new shocks etc. Prep can run 5k to 10k per race and that is not counting transportation to Mexico, hotel rooms, food and of course beer for your crew. If you win you might brak 1/2 even.

You can say that again. My kid can't go 1/2 a lap without costing me $1000 in body panels. plus all the stuff you mentioned and then some.
