TRD 86 Cup for under $50k at Yas Marina

http://www.yasmarinacircuit.com/en/m...lub/trd-86-cup

AED 177,000 (~$49k USD) gets you the following:

Quote:
Race Prepared Toyota 86 Cup car
Choice of a private tution session or license assessment
No race fees for Season 2
Free entry to two track days at Yas Marina Circuit during Season 2
60% discount on track days at Yas Marina Circuit during Season 2
Includes a set of Pirelli tyres
Gold Class for experienced drivers and Silver class for novices and beginners
Minimum grid of 12 Cars for 2015 - 2016 season
But.. you aren't buying the car, you are renting it for the season.

Still, not too bad of a price.

Very cool! And not a bad price to have a race car for the season. I wish they had more details on the suspension in the description though, beyond "Motorsport suspension kit."

That's really cheap, but I assume that they don't travel extensively, I've heard that some competitive amateur road racing series in the U.S. are up in the $250k range

Actually the package includes owning the car without the service and consumables. I got the car mid season from a guy who wanted to quit for a good price 31k with the car only doing two races.

Every round in yas had a different track layout and one round was in Dubai Autodroom track as seen in the link below (Skip to 4:30)

$50K for owning the race car outright and cover the season entry fees is not a bad deal at all!
