A story from series prod days. A well known driver who went on to win the ATCC put a motor in his car and we all piled into the back seat to give it some traction on the rollers during the power runs and it was well down on what was expected. He took the car away and when it was next on the rollers the power was better than expected so some trade plates were put on it and it was taken for a mild thrashing to run it in. I heard later that it took quite some work and effort to make it legal before it was sold.
I have yet to see any motor racing class where money did not count and that did not get more expensive as time went on.
