Really? WOW! Is that because the donor car you were looking at was really, really expensive? Not picking on you but am curious.
For $10K, you can easily build an ITB car and be a front runner. Yes it takes time and I did not include that. And I'm not talking about requiring a person to have a lot of skill or special tools. It also takes some dedication to read racing books, going to races (oh, no), watching race and your own in-car race video, talking to others about racing, etc.
If you run tracks other then Lime Rock, a limited slip should also be figured into the budget (for the FWD cars you're talking about) when you do the motor.
(In no way am I saying that buying an already built car isn't much cheaper. But as Jon says, there are some advantages of doing it yourself if ya enjoy that type of thing.)
