"  Thank God for the ACO&amp;#039;s P1 class. It&amp;#039;s home to crazy prototypes like Audi&amp;#039;s Le Mans-winning R18 e-tron quattro and the Toyota TS030 Hybrid, and offers motorsports fans a ray of hope in a world filled with cookie-cutter race cars. While many racing series try their hardest to keep a lid on innovation, P1 is a bastion of creativity and the price tag proves it. Take this carbon-fiber nose for Honda&amp;#039;s HPD ARX-03a prototype. That car is a fast and economical alternative for teams that don&amp;#039;t have the deep pockets of an Audi or Toyota, making it the leading privateer chassis. But &amp;quot;economical&amp;quot; is a relative term here. That nose pictured above (and the crash structure that fits inside it) will still set its owners back almost $150,000. Where does that sum come from? Thousands of hours of R&amp;amp;amp;D work,mostly though wind tunnel simulations, and a very limited production run. Incidentally, the HPD ARX-03a&amp;#039;s rear wing and associated structure runs another $100,000, bringing the cost of spare front and rear bodywork to a sum roughly equal to the price of a new Ferrari 458 Italia.
