The Eyesore Racing team's car is a turbo charged Miata and they work at a Dyno shop.

Here is a pic of their "garage". I am quite sure they know what they are doing!

I found the website to the 4th place team and their MR2. It is a 1st gen AW11

Check out their website: http://lilsmokeyracing.com

The link to the Craigs list ad is a PDF file, which means they could have easily created that ad.
I dare you to click on the "More important details" link. That is a good way to get good favor with the judges ;D

Here they are from last years Arse Freeze-a-Palooza event in Button willow, the same event we will be entering in. Very good chance we will be running with this team
