It's the fact I would buy the car then have to buy driveshafts, then a diff, then something else.

I mean sure for somebody who's raced micro's for a while they can buy the car and all the bits needed to be competitive and reliable but to a complete outsider they would have to do loads of research to make their car competitive and reliable. I would much rather pay whatever it took to get a fully functioning car that I know I can race out of the box without any difficulty and be on pace with the other cars. Buying a car that is sub-race standard and buying the bits to make it race standard seems like such a waste, it would be cheaper if the car came with the upgraded bits in the long run.
