My problem is age for me. Being 14 I have to ask my mum to do stuff like this and shes not having it so far. there is also the time and money issue and distance as a small factor as I cant drive yet. Apart from round the farm yard. Ive even thought about the possibilities of hosting. Mum not having that either. Just wait to go off to some uni far far away and make something there. Or try plan b. Make a paper model. See if I can add some wood. then slowly see if i can find some stuff to screw on and get a running vehicle. Then just tinker.
