I used to build race cars. Two guys I knew did this.

The first one was actually a massive nerd who by day worked for some shipbuilding company that designed and made composite hulls for the Navy. It was big money with few working hours.

The other guy owned some random worthless land in the middle of nowhere and some oil company sent him money each month for mineral rights.

So essentially both had limitless funds for what is usually a side hobby.

Ive built racecars too and I love the optimism of these people. Its always slightly depressing to have to explain to them "Buddy, if there was an affordable way to easily make 1000 reliable HP without sacrificing anything for a reasonable figure. We would all have done it."
