You guys think playing with diesels is expensive? The silver DCB in that garage has twin Mercury Racing 1350HP engines that after about 120 hours have to be pulled out and sent back to Mercury for a rebuild. Each engine costs $50,000 to rebuild. For an avid boater, that could mean $100,000 in rebuilds every 2 years or so.
To show how ridiculous that is, I can go out and buy an entire fully built LML crate motor with all the tricks in the bag for ~$25,000??? Off the charts stupid but i guess if you can pay $1.4M for a new DCB you can afford the rebuilds.

Thats the low end prep for a trophy truck getting ready for the 1000. Generally they are about 150-175k for a full strip down/inspection/rebuild before a big race. course that includes engine refresh, trans, and rear end rebuilds. They are cresting over 1.1m these days with the new tech going into them, spares, and so on. The big guys are retarded in the amount of money they have in just trailers, trucks, pit support, tools, parts and so on. BFG will even rent out their trailer with a fricken full machine shop inside.
one day ill race the 1000 in either a 7200 truck, spec TT or full on trophy truck. Just gotta find a rental :roflmao:
Downey was great in that movie. :rofl: BTW, I wish I had those kinds of "problems".......
honestly it depends. you would be surprised at the bs that can come with it. I dont make a ton of money, im actually pretty average income for out here. years down the road, that will change when the business is paid off and so on but wont ever change who i am. We were raised humble and i plan to stay that way as well as raise my kids the same.
. I’m going to build a mostly enclosed carport for the limo at the back of my side yard with an over hang to the side for my lawn mower/Brooklyn’s quad/other junk.
