Mum & dad get to mortgage the family home a bit harder I guess...

Of course that price at $200k doesnt include dragging the family entourage to every event alongside the young pilot... dad, mum, sister, uncle, brother & a few more.. airfares.. motels.. hire cars.. the dollars can soon rack up to even more mega levels!

A bigger mortgage is but a bank manager's meeting away after all..

There doesnt seem to be a full house 'arrive and drive' squad in ARC as there is in the various open wheeler formulas.

If the car starts the year after a full birthday, and nothing breaks, and there is no crash damage, and no testing (because nobody seems to test) it has been said n ARC car can run for around $40k...

Plus entourage..
