I haven't seen the break down of the $50K but, having done a lot of racing in the past, consider the following:
Tires
Race gas
Possible blown engine
Possible blown ZF
Possible minor to major contact
Entry fees
Pit space fees
Lubricants
Pit crew
Transporter
Lodging for crew
Brake linings
Spare parts
This may add up to a measely $5K as suggested if everything went right, but if the ZF scattered, took out the bell housing, severed a few brake lines and put the car into the wall, 50K may not be enough. I don't have 50K at hand, however, driving in this particular race in a Pantera is very close to my all time, must do before you die, activities.
I am not sure if the car is a real Gruppo IV or a Pantera with race history, however, it is very difficult to be invited to participate in this event.
I am not sure if Whiplash would be eligible for this event, but I would love to enter it some day and take one shift behind the wheel. I would probably hire a professional driver to qualify the car and do most of the driving, perhaps Danica Patrick with Paige Adler taking a shift too. What would that be worth = priceless. DA
