i dont really see the big deal. he bought a fairly decent car for 500 bucks (that im assuming was almost stock) and put more money into it to make it a rally car. it dosent say what he paid to get it like that... or did i miss something?

Regardless, he did it entirely himself and still beat purpose built factory rally cars. In other words, he built a rally car by himself that was better then what some big car makers can make. Why is that not impressive to you?

i thought it said he did have a team or something. i do think its cool, but with enough money, its perfectly possible to do it.
