A formula car that fits within a challenge budget?
I have a whopping $550 into this car at this point:

I dont think the car in the first video would be challenge friendly if you had to buy the shoes to get the boxes. I wonder if the plans for that are on the intarwb somewhere. I would make that from scrap card board, (FeEx boxes come to mind) and hang in in my shop.

HARLEY??? Try a TL-1000 instead.
As to suspension, maybe Keith can find some "blems" in the tubular A-arms at Flyin' Miata...

Seconded. That's one hell of a motor, and they're not too hard to find. 120hp is a few bolt-ons away, power everywhere, loves to rev. Not to diminish a built Harley-esque lump, but you'll spend a good deal of money to get big power form it.

Oh man, if you find them please let me know.
