Wanna build a mad max car?

I have a tip through my Junkyard Wars connection on an upcomming show. It's like Full Metal Challenge that was on The Learning Channel. It's in China. If anyone wants to put a team together let me know. You have a month and you get $2000 to put together the toughest piece of **** you can. 3 people on a team, 21 teams. All expenses paid. The combat car must be under 6000 pounds and it has to fit into a standard shipping container.

Someone here must have an old 4x4 they can use. Hack the body away, put some weapons on it and paint it up. I'm waiting on the official rules and application instructions. This could be a lot of fun.

Damn dude, if I knew I could get away long enough to do it, I'd be right there with you. Sounds pretty cool though.

Dude this sounds like fun...can just "anyone" form a team and they pay expenses or what? How do they pick which teams get to compete? When would this happen and everything? I could see this being some real fun for me, my friend, and my uncle
