and what was already stated, Hara is by far an awesome individual, fantastic driver and Hot bodies laid the smack down at the worlds!!!! im even contemplating on buying a D8 just to give it a whirl, and to say i drove a world champion winning buggy!

The people are discussing the vehicle in question, the "kit" not all of its running gear, which by the way is moot as everybody has their own options as to what they run.

Would you like to factor in the cost of those nifty shorts and Hara primo haircut as well into the equation to take away from the low cost of the buggy itself? Heck, lets just throw in the price of the ticket from Japan, then we have the most expensive buggy out there!
