While this is not a story about jeeping, it is a story about my son who buys a car for $500 off Craigslist and enters the World Rally Championship in Mexico.

To put it bluntly, That's fawking awesome!
Not a Jeep story, but most certainly Jeep spirit. $500 > $400,000
I almost feel bad for those WRC sucka's......almost. Very well done!

Truely awesome, kinda reminds me of Lucas Murphy and his '10 King of the Hammers story.

And did you read the related story from Bill's co-driver, Ben Slocum? He is blind in one eye and thus has no depth perception. And this was their first race together.
