Is a Tata Nano race series plausible?
They are apparently kind of capable off-road, so it might not need paved venue.
(NB, horn adds six inches of ground clearance.)
Does one import and then modify or is it worth getting roll cage high-endurance bearings etc installed before shipping?
How many Tata Nanos can fit in a shipping container?
Could they be imported as "competition" cars or as a kind of go-kart?
$1000 is about 74k rupees.
