    That stuff is pretty narly dude. Many years ago I dated a girl who's family raced midgets pretty heavily, had the whole nine yards, two cars, 36' race trailer. Every time they raced it was a wagon train of 350's and trailers. Really a cool seen to be a part of. Everybody is one huge family in the pits and mortal enemies on the track, lol.

    How much of that car is re-usable?

    probably everything but the wings, axles, chassis, one rim and whatever bars broke. But hell, their budget is so enormous they have 2-3 more cars sitting up in their trailer
