Instructions

1. Find a heavier older car that still has some zip to it. It's not very important that there are some rust spots on the car. The gas guzzlers of tend to have the biggest advantage.

2. See if you can find something that still runs relatively well or is inexpensive to put into running condition.

3. Choose a car that you feel comfortable driving. Small repairs are minor if you feel the car handles well.

4. Paint the driver's door with light paint and put the black number on it. You need to make certain that the number is easily seen by all, so a driver's side door is important. It's against the rules to hit the driver's door.

5. Stay worry free about broken windows and headlamps. You will remove all glass in the car. It will be imperative that you remove the windshield, rear windows, side windows and even the head lamps. This is for your protection.

6. Get a discount for ruined seats. You will be removing the back seat and passenger seat, anyway.

7. Purchase a car with studded tires to get extra traction. Most tracks are turned to mud so traction is important.
