Unless you are a factory driver, you typically have to pay for your seat or the team looks at how money you can find for them.

For example, Toro Rosso's Bourdais replacement Jaime Alguersuari biggest credential besides his F3 talent is the Repsol backing he would bring.

In fact Toro Rosso is the ex Minardi camp and i remember those days when the drivers would basically always fund their seat.

Rally for me just cause I think that would be a bigger rush then anything else.

**Big Baller** · 07-23-2009, 11:33 AM

Its sad that so many are worried about money, I would be willing to make next to nothing for a free seat. If you want to be rich racing cars is a shitty way to get there

**Elbow** · 07-23-2009, 12:20 PM

I've always said that I would race for free, I really would, I would have no problem barely making it by in life but racing in a series for free lol.

**matthewAPM** · 07-23-2009, 01:23 PM

i would be fine with making just enough money to have an ok house and a cool car. As long as im doing what I love im happy

**Elbow** · 07-23-2009, 03:22 PM

^X2

We got an ECR car.

**bagnasco** · 07-23-2009, 08:42 PM

rally in a 1974 Lancia Stratos HF Group 4

after thinking about it my second choice would be road racing in the 1962 Ferrari 250 GT SWB Drogo, i just love the classic.

Hell yeah!

I saw a Stratos in Athens a few years back at a car show.

**qwick** · 07-25-2009, 03:20 AM

Road Racing with a Lamborghini Murcielago SV LP670.

Awsome thread btw.

**JJSPEC Racing** · 07-25-2009, 08:42 AM

Road racing would be a close second, but Top Fuel/Dragster would be my choice. Wouldnt even mind crewing for a team. Good post btw!

**matthewAPM** · 07-25-2009, 10:23 AM

ECR FTW!

**Deke** · 07-25-2009, 07:46 PM

Post duplicated when I edited. Weird.

Hey I never said I wouldn't take a free seat anywhere. I'd love to race in any series. I'm just a big picture kind of guy. I could race in nascar for a few years, then have a enough money to do/race whatever the hell I want. Now that I'm out of school and have a good job, I want to get more into amateur racing (SCCA, track days, etc.), and I assure you it has nothing to do with money.

The quickest way to make $20000 in racing is to spend $100K. True story. If you can get sponsors to help pay for it you can break even or even profit. It is extremely hard to do it and make money. Do it for the love!

**Hondatypr636** · 07-26-2009, 09:59 AM

Road racing and Auto X. Car choice ITR but a NSX would be pretty bad ass also.

**Elbow** · 07-26-2009, 03:02 PM

I ran autocross professionally one year. I made about $100.

I did Sport Compact Drag racing on a professional level for a couple of years and made some but spent more. I bet you have a lot of awesome memories though!

**BanginJimmy** · 07-27-2009, 12:13 AM

demolition derby. I LOVE breaking shit.

Car of choice, 1974 Cutlass

**dazn** · 07-27-2009, 08:43 PM

In a Volvo 850 wagon

**FasTech** · 07-29-2009, 02:58 AM

Very hard choice between Drifting and Road Racing. Although, I think I would lean more towards drifting. Car; would like a built rb25 Nissan S14. If I were to pick road racing, I'd want a track built Evo X.

**J-ROCK** · 07-29-2009, 03:56 AM

road racing with a built j swapped ej1 civic!

**The Ninja** · 07-29-2009, 09:04 PM

F1(Toyota), MotoGP(Repsol/Honda), ALMS(Ferrari P1), LM(Honda[I can dream right?]). In that order.

**Nick Jeezy** · 07-29-2009, 09:07 PM

i would like to drift. but i voted for circle track for the money.

**Elbow** · 07-30-2009, 07:05 AM

I want to see some of these cars you all speak of lol, like a road racing J swapped Civic, I'd love to see the classes lolol.

He'd have more success in a 4 door. That is why Honda chose it over anything else in JTCC. (Well, and Super Touring II rules said it had to be 4 door).

**hondalover00** · 07-30-2009, 09:23 PM
