Mad Money
How we made a tiny fortune out of a free car, boundless optimism, a pro racing series, and a pretty sizable fortune.
BY AARON ROBINSON
With one or two delusional exceptions,Car and Driver staffers have abandoned any dreams of becoming pro racing drivers. Our glory ships sailed years agoindeed, around age three when our parents somehow neglected to buy us go-kartsbut we are not numb to occasional opportunities to play major-league driver, especially at someone else’s prodigious sweat and vast expense. Such an opportunity seemed to be dangling from a low-hanging branch in the early spring of 2006. As fast as Eve in the Garden, we reached up and plucked it. acheter cialis
Between then and the Grand-Am Koni Challenge Series Fresh From Florida 200 race at Daytona International Speedway on January 25, 2008, we learned some important lessons. First, at any level of pro racingeven the kind that has thin television coverage and mostly unknown driversjust showing up with a functional machine able to run no better than last in its class is shockingly difficult and expensive.
Secondly, when someone offers you a free car, run in the other direction.
Cars that for many reasons cannot legally be sold are the normal detritus of every automaker viagra bestellen. Most are preproduction prototypes with no proper identifying numbers. They cannot be registered and are nothing but tax and lawsuit liabilities once their function is served. A date with steel jaws is inevitable, except when wily public-relations departments are able to dole them out to magazines for special projects.
