Well, for us that's a "yes and no" thing.  We race two first generation
RX-7s (a '79 and an '80).  We paid $5k each, including car, trailer,
and several hundred pounds of spare parts, tires, wheels, etc.  So,
that initial investment would get me, ... uh ... a very nice camera
setup, actually. :-)  But, frankly, the driving is more fun. :-)

That's great!  We were lucky to get a podium, third but still podium,
in our first race.  We probably won't get another one for a long time,
if ever. :-)
