Well if we only can use 10k then we will focus on the engine and such and everyones car will look stock.

Wait. Who said we can only use 10K?!

That's what I saw TRK post at some point.

10k on parts, not including the car from what I understand

Yeah thats for his event but idk if its still going forward.

Alright, would help if TRK came in here and cleared things up.

TRK said in the party a few days ago that it's $10k including the price of the car.

That's for TRK's event, haha. For the March matsuri I'm organizing, the only limits are 350hp and stock or street tires.

Team Spooky DOES have a parts budget, but that only pertains to building Team Spooky shop cars - it has nothing to do with anything outside of the Team Spooky shop, so no worries. XD

cool my secret mota needs more power lol

Sorry for the confusion.
The $10,000 budget is for my upcoming beater/missile competition/fun-no-worries-about-scraping-your-super-expensive-and-totally-awesome-car-that-you've-worked-so-goddamn-hard-on events.

I'll clear those things up later.

I still haven't had a PM back from Smooth so the Scrapyard is still a bit vague..

so for trk's event you can only buy an s13? as anything else will be at a disadvantage due to starting with only 3-4k to build

No, the whole idea for this is to go out bargain hunting!
First I had a S13 with an SR20 for 7,4k, bought a couple of parts and sold that one.
Then I had the opportunity to buy a 240SX for 5k, came with an SR20.
Sold the SR20 for 4k and bought an RB26 for 4k.

So now I'm at a 240SX powered by an RB26 for 5k.

A Hachi is a great choice too, so is the foxbody and several other cars that I wont spoil ;]

I've got an idea for the Scrapyard that makes this more viable but as I said, Smooth hasn't replied yet.

lol sd are getting hold of every cheap car and asking top dollar so finding a bargain + everyone else is trying to for the comp = some of us will have to run 55psi and close our eyes pmsl

I need judges!!!!!!!

I've tested and made sure it's possible to buy new cars as well ;]
It's true that everyone will need to run high PSI but believe me, these cars are fun as hell ;]

@Cody:
I'm sorry, I just got off the Xbox and am doing college work now.

Its fine.

fun yes but keeping on angle at 50psi+ gives folks with power and 35psi a big advantage lol
well id be unlikely to change my choice anyway as its just as much fun facing the wrong way with a busted up rust heap

lol what advantage? It's not a competition - neither TRK's event or Team Spooky's, haha.

It's all about fun :]

Trust me, it does wonders for your car control!

i mean my tester wont drift uphill so it wont drift quite a few places lol

I'm running short sections in my upcoming events, don't worry.
From what I've seen, addie is too.

cool cool, need to think how i'll get it to work for under 10k nowz
fuji downhill is ridiculous fun with less then 10k of parts though lol

Junkyard? What have I missed this event sounds awesome TRK (Managed to get the xbox online at uni for the first time in 3years yaaay! So I can join in maybe?).

So may I please have some more information my darlings? Also how is everyone!

We're still waiting to hear from Smooth, who is likely massively busy haha. It's a service where you can get a non-running car without a motor or the like for cheaper than buy a car new.

Ooooh that sounds cool. Well it's upto too smooth and it is a busy time of year.
