"That is such an accomplishment. MacGyver himself couldn't engineer a more improbable outcome."

"Likewise, the car that manages to go through the most laps wins the race, which is awarded via a trophy and a 4-figure cash prize consisting of bags full of nickels. Another prize (and considered by some to be the "true" winner) is the Index of Effluency award, presented to a car considered unlikely to finish the race at all, let alone finish with a respectable number of laps completed. Previous winners of the IoE, as it is often called, include old Detroit "land yachts" such as the Oldsmobile 98 and Ford LTD, as well as historically unreliable European cars like the Opel GT."

the best kind of race type/organization/rules ive seen was the autocross in Finland, all the car's on the starting grid have the same value of 3000 euros, after each race ,any driver can come to any other driver and buy their car for 3000 euros , they have to sell it to them.

keeps the playing field level and stops constant upgrading and money investments in the cars. you know how it goes in motor sport , the man with the most money wins.
