The word "epic!" is thrown a lot these days for things that don't deserve it. The LMP360 deserves it. Creative and cool levels are off the chart.

The LMP/Krautcart race was super close!
In reply to Patrick :
That seems about right. 32 under $2k budget cars (concours scoring), 66 cars overall.
Getting ready for awards. 
Prizes coming up from Tire Rack, CRC Industries, Summit Racing, Miller Electric, Craven Speed, Lamin-X, ACI Automotive, Trakk Rats and, of course, Grassroots Motorsports 
Handing out some hardware. 
Everyone else have a full, fun weekend?
Results??
In reply to hobiercr :
Working on it. There appears to be some confusion as people did not use the numbers assigned to them and things are strange.
And we have a winner. Congratulations, Nocones. 
Results to come soon.
Town hall meeting. 
Congratulations Nocones!
Following that build since day one and excited to see what it has become. Mad props!

Yeah, you saw that too? That brake line is definitely going to need to be inspected after being pulled with the cable like that. 
Nocones is such a great representative of the GRM family. He spent so much time today explaining the details of his build, and especially how the real challenge to stay in budget. Of course, he thinks with $15K more improvements there is no street car to come close. LOL
Congrats to all who participated, each of the 30+ cars had an interesting story!
Congrats to nocones and to all those who participated.
I'm headed back home! I hope who I'm seated next to will enjoy all the car stuff I'll speak about on the way back.
It was nice getting to know many of the forum regulars at the $2000 Challenge. I'm looking forward to conversing with you here and seeing you at a future event. Stay tuned to GrassrootsMotorsports.com and future issues for coverage. We came away with a ton of interesting stories, photos and video.
Parking lot sammich for dinner.
I'm sitting at the airport wondering how the parking lot build did.

I was sitting at the most empty corner of the place when I took that.
And home.
Let the uploading begin! Sending a chunk of photos to the server.
More to upload still.
And a huge thank you to whoever ordered the weather.
Had a delightful top-down drive home this evening.
While I'm waiting for my transfer in Atlanta, I'm going through photos. Here are Purple Frog and nocones talking after the concours portion of the event.
