Re: Just video of few races...
Man, there's some very special people who can't drive!!
BTW, I know the guy with the "Duct Tape Racing" corsica. He, and a few buddies got bored one day at school (kettering University) and decided to put the 5 rolles of tape they had laying around to good use. The ENTIRE car was covered with the exception of all the windows but the drivers rear. That plywood wing made so much downforce it made the car squat several inches on the highway. Eventually the tape peeled off, though as far as i know the wind remains screwed on, at a lower angle to produce less downforce.

Haha, I'm actually one of the people that applied the duct tape and the wing to the Duct Tape Racer
It had the classic Corsica "flame" paint job (paint peeling off in large portions), and we were bored the week before we started classes, so we decided what the heck, lets have some fun and make fun of some ricers
5 rolls of silver, 2 rolls of red, and a roll of black duct tape later, the car was utterly covered, complete with racing stripe and red duct tape accents in key places. Then we decided it needed a big shopping cart wing on the back, and what better material than wood
From 50 feet away you could barely tell it was tape, we did a professional top-notch tape job
You shoulda seen the reactions the first time we drove it around, it attracted more attention than a freakin Ferrari, it was great, everybody would stop what they were doing, point, and laugh.
Here's some more pics:

The pics were taken quite some time after the "paint job" was done, so it was a bit tattered by that point. The thing rocked high 20 second 1/4 miles and scored near-last place times at the autocross track, especially when he did one run in reverse, lol
Good times, good times...
