The word "epic!" is thrown a lot these days for things that don't deserve it.  The LMP360 deserves it.  Creative and cool levels are off the chart.

That seems about right. 32 under $2k budget cars (concours scoring), 66 cars overall.

Working on it.  There appears to be some confusion as people did not use the numbers assigned to them and things are strange.

Yeah, you saw that too? That brake line is definitely going to need to be inspected after being pulled with the cable like that.  wink

Nocones is such a great representative of the GRM family.  He spent so much time today explaining the details of his build, and especially how the real challenge to stay in budget.  Of course, he thinks with $15K more improvements there is no street car to come close.  LOL    

Congrats to all who participated, each of the 30+ cars had an interesting story!

Congrats to nocones and to all those who participated.

I'm headed back home! I hope who I'm seated next to will enjoy all the car stuff I'll speak about on the way back.

It was nice getting to know many of the forum regulars at the $2000 Challenge. I'm looking forward to conversing with you here and seeing you at a future event. Stay tuned to GrassrootsMotorsports.com and future issues for coverage. We came away with a ton of interesting stories, photos and video.

Class changes = less Concours judging, but that pict under the pavilion looks sad. We need more Challenge cars next year!

I was sitting at the most empty corner of the place when I took that.
