Unreal......
You're born, you take sh*t. You get out in the world, take more sh*t. Climb a little higher, take less sh*t. Then one day when you're in the rarified atmosphere, you've forgotten what sh*t even looks like. Welcome to the Layer Cake son.

1mil +. Between the hull itself, and the turbine package, you are talking big $$$.

What is the winning potential of these team $$$ wise. They have some serious investments in machinery, I'm just wondering what the potential payoffs are?

not very much maybe 20k per race if they win, if they blow a turbine the rebuild is in the neighborhood of 80-90k, plus the team expensis.. Originally Posted by redjeeper

So basically this sport is a tax write off for the owners.
