    Great news! The local news just reported that the rig and car were found. There were some items stolen and possibly some damage, but the car is untouched. Sometimes the bad guys don't win.

    they didn't catch the thieves, they found the stuff abandoned.

    it is likely the thieves pussied out.

    Still lucky the thiefs didnt "try" the cupcar... I don't know whether I would have been able to resist the temptation!

    Joost, that isn't a regular cupcar, it's modified for the SPEED World Challenge Series. It's probably making 450+ HP, has a ridiculous 5-inch "carbon" clutch, and is very hard to drive due to the on/off nature of the engine. My car is the "sister" of that car, and it scared the hell out of me the first time I drove it.
