The Top Gear 24h Silverstone race

Post

Hello!
Yesterday, I saw the episode of Top Gear where they prep a BMW diesel to race the 24 hours of Silverstone.

Does anybody know how big a budget they had ? I mean for the car, parts, entry fee etc... ?

This is usually the point where I did out my piccy of me and Stiggy from before the race to bask in his reflective glory...
