Goodyear Billboards - I couldn't resist
I'm also blown away by $20k for engineering. For the ICVs I've dealt with, including gt40s, scratch but one offs and more than a few cobras, I've never even come close to half this figure. I certainly agree that cost and value are different.
I guess the only difficulty is what if they don't come to your club for rego? Your club stands to lose out if the scheme is ended. We don't even have a scheme like this in NSW (although we petition for it regularly). So the ulterior motive for me was to say: look out for yourself. Look out for those you share the road with. Look after a scheme that is allowing you to drive cool cars without huge cost. And if you're doing something that doesn't comply, don't write about it on the Internet - the RTA in NSW definitely browse these forums, and I expect the Victorian equivalent do too.
