2002/2003 challenge - claiming rule?

[dsedon@domain.elided]

brian, if james is correct, i'd adwise ewe not to enter mortimer.  otherwise, tho i'll be $2003 poorer, i will be the owner of mortimer!  ;~)  and eric, if this is twue, then how come ya still own that turbo spider?  :>)  i'd bet if labour were calculated at even 1/4 the going rate, *no one* would come in at <$2003...

   Hmmm,

   Now you've got me thinking.  As of right now, Mortimer, the fastest Berlina
   in the world, qualifies for this challenge.

   If I remember correctly, they now have a claiming rule to prevent this.
   So, you should be able to buy the car from another competitor for $2003,
   which pretty strongly discourages spending more than the limit.
