From what I can gather, Singer wants 200k+ for one of their machines, so even if this beast could be done for 150, I would be a "relative" bargain, plus the spec in this for for suspension and setup seem much more focused and hard core than the Singer.

Paging H2Oskier!!!!!

Yeah, you can save money in a lot of places.

If you go with later 911 front control-arms and don't do the custom fabrication on the rear control-arm area and stick with torsion-bar suspension (still with all new bushings, sport shocks and bigger torsion bars), you can save like 20K.

If you don't do the carbon fiber parts and do it in all steel, you can save another 10K, maybe more.

Then you start getting into drastic changes. Foregoing the Cup Car motor will save HUGE money. You won't have to fab the water-cooling system and use off-the-shelf Porsche parts for the oil system instead of plumbing it to the front.

Anyway, here's a video of a real RSR for you Eric, replete with 15" Fuchs and chubby tires.

love it except for the 996cup motor. dont know why you'd want an overly high strung motor in it thats gonna need rebuilds every 100hrs. I bet its a hoot on the track and it sounds the bizness! (for me I'd have to throw an aircooled motor in there). Clearly money wasnt an object putting this thing together.
