WanderingMuse22's Crazy Uncle's One Lap Magic Budget Rider

You've a crazy rich uncle that lives in Germany, and he's invited you to come visit for a holiday. Having heard of your affinity for driving, and living so close to the Nurburgring Nordshcliefe, he's granting you one lap in the exotic car of your choosing.

There's a catch. He knows how dangerous the Nordschliefe is. If you hurt the car you choose, you have to work off the price of the car in his family business- not pleasant since the duties would involve a shovel and a gas mask.

He has a jealous nitwit son that won't like his offer (B Spec Bob). Your lap time must be quicker than his "fast" (4) effort. However, if you can give your uncle a better lap time than his nitwit son, and also present him with a spotless car, you get to keep it, and also receive a cash inheritance equal to the value of the car.

So here's the deal- you must spend at least 100,000 (but no more than 1,000,000) cr on the car. It must be a new production car that money can buy, and you must use N3 tires. You get a 500cr budget for modifications, but you may only spend it on rims. Any country is fine.

Once you've chosen the car, let Cousin (B-Spec) Bob have a lap at setting 4. Then, take your turn.

If you hit the Armco, even once, even only a little, the BR is over. Feel free to post the sale price of the car, as that will help cut down on the amount of shoveling owed.

If you run a clean lap, and beat the nitwit, you win. Feel free to post your lap time. It's that easy. Or is it?

The idea is credited to sackedagain's comments about how terrible we'd be as test drivers, since we don't have to regard our physical safety nor the value of the merchandise we're driving.
