I imagine the cost would be a lot more manageable as there are a lot of such cars laying around just waiting for someone to return them to opposite lock heroism and big turbo fireballs.

Open 2WD more or less exists to try and regain the premier Supernational class that got killed in Sweden. Ironically it got killed by costs getting really high and the motorsport federation handling it quite badly.
Thing is, the class is open to anything with 2WD. Literally. Tiger for example is in a Supernational spec car, quite heavily invested in with ALS and 530hp, while Mattias Jansson on the other hand is in a 2400cc car which has a smaller engine and is more stock like. And Venäläinen, who competed in that Datsun at OuluZone, actually doesn't race with the premier Finnish Supernational class, he races in another class called Autokrossi or something like that.
