Bill Caswell Is My Hero
Chances are you have never heard of Bill Caswell before. But let me tell you this: Bill is an absolute legend.
You see, Bill recently purchased a 23-year-old BMW shitbox from online classifieds website Craigslist for a measly $500. So far so ordinary.
Yet Bill had an ambition. An ambition to take his hunk of junk and participate alongside rallying's finest in the WRC. And that's exactly what he did recently in the Rally Mexico event earlier this month.
Pour yourself a brew, make yourself comfortable and give this a good read. It will leave you feeling warm and fuzzy inside.
Utter lunacy - but the best form of it. Bill, we salute you!
