Could /o/ come together and buy a racecar?

Reddit did it with the Dogecoin Nascar, I'm sure we could buy out a Rally Car team or even Indy Car.
>>
>>15443621
For sure we could do a GT Spec car
>>
Lefties would probably get butthurt if they saw a 4chan car. Which is the only reason we should need to do so.
>>
>>15443621
What would our slogan be though?
>>
>>15443667
OH FUCK

we need to buy one and fill it with whatever will make people mad
>>
>>15443677
What's /o/'s slogan? Do we have one?
>>
Because the poltards would spam swastikas everywhere as well as other extremely distasteful images.

>>15443667
>implying lefties watch NASCAR.
>>
>>15443695
>implying we'd buy a Nascar
GT3 or bust
>>
>>15443701
Exactly
>>
>>15443695
We could have anons submit car designs & put accepted designs up to a vote
>>
Bump.

I would stand behind this.

You guys can't even read that swine bought new without shitting your pants. Everyone here is poor enough to live in Detroit. There is a zero chance this will happen.
>>
>>15443621
Doubtful, it cost about 5-12 million to do a season of v8 supercar and if its not at least on the same level as racing as those cars it simply is not worth doing.
>>
We don't own any rights to 4chan, we would have to get approval from Hiro.

We could make a WAT Racing car.
>>
>>15443621
older GT3 cars (Z4s, 997s, C6 Vette, GTR, SLS AMG, old R8, etc) go for around 150 000€ - 300 000€

To that, you need to add potential changes to the car due to regulation changes, racing licenses for the drivers, a trailer to transport the car, the tools for working on the car, additional spare parts and ofcourse paying both the drivers and the pit crew.

1. "Buy" a team? Not the slimmest chance in hell. Plus, I'm sure the first neckbeard behind the wheel ("Cuz' I gave da most moneys, bruh!") would total the car on his first go.

2. I think OP meant pay for a sponsorship deal. I'd love that but I'm aware that /o/'s average income, meself included, isn't what you'd call "relatively decent". We could probably sponsor a lower-tier NASCAR team but it wouldn't make any headlines.

In case we do get our shekels together for it, we should totally do a WAT Racing Itasha special with a bumper sticker that reads "MOOT POINT".
>>
>>15444652
OP here, let me clarify:

1. Fuck no on letting any of the donators drive (MAYBE if they're really good at sim racing, but that's a huge maybe), that's a dumbass idea, I agree.

2. Yes, Sponsorship is what I meant. We get together like $5000-20000 and give it to some Russian team in exchange for bumper sticker space.
>>
>>15443680
MAKE IT ECOBOSST
>>
There's always iRacing.

We don't have a product either, dogecoin is a thing, but WAT is not.
>>
>>15445518
>MAYBE if they're really good at sim racing
no
just no

>>15443683
"I don't know anything about these cars, they're probably all shit."
>>
>>15445642

Shut your poop mouth. WAT is definitely a thing!
>>
>>15445647
Keyword maybe

If we do secure funding, we could ask /ovg/ to set up something akin to what we'd put our money into; then, set up a championship for people who are registered to drive, and the winner gets to drive a leg in the race or passenger seat rights to the race.

As you can see, I'm more of an idea man than a action man, so take it with a grain of salt.
>>
>>15445692
Yeah, but what does it sell? Stickers?
>>
WAT Racing at 24h Dubai when?

Europoors could pool enough money to send a car over to Dubai. The classes they run there are pretty loose, so we could dominate one of the shitbox classes. I think last time we did the math, it came out to around 50k Euros to get a car, suits, licensing, equipment, and sikk mawds.
>>
Ive still got a could hundred thousand dogecoins somewhere, maybe we should combine all our crypto and do it
>>
>>15443621
Dogecoin is a financial system, which gets stronger the higher number of people using it.

It was not reddit buying a car, it was rich investors buying a sponsorship following some faggot's idea.

First get rich, then we can talk
>>
>>15445703
>Keyword maybe
keywords definitely no

>ask /ovg/
NO
>>
>>15443621

WAT Racing is basically this already. He runs a CRX.
>>
>>15443621
i was part of that


it only costs 6 million for the sprint cup final race

Actually, it was less well known, but Dogecoin also sponsored a v8 supercar as well (for one race)

I-I want recognition too
I've been running this for at least a year.
