Cheap Formula-X Car Starts Life as a 4-Wheeler

Racing car from a quad racer!

I can tell you from experience that buying a racecar is far from a cheap proposition. I purchased a dedicated road racing car and the same cost more than a normal street car. If you have a hankering to try your hand at rally cross, a company called Formula Cross has awesome and surprisingly cheap racecar that you might want to check out. The car is called the YFC 450, and it's more akin to a go kart than a real racing car.

It starts life as a Yamaha YZF450 racing ATV. The kit price is $7500 with a pre-order deposit of $2500 required. Services to build your cart from your kit and quad start at $1350. Deliveries for the vehicle will start in November. The kit appears to come with everything you need other than the donor dirt bike.
