Cost Report Misery OVER

So we just completed the super awesome cost report, which was a huge pain in the butt. Basically, it is a cost tally of all of the materials, parts, labor, and assembly time of everything on the car.

No big deal, it sounds easy right? Consider this-We have to log everything.... EVERYTHINGGGG. Including each bolt, weld, and cut on the car. We also have to show receipts for all of this stuff. The writeup alone is about 30 to 40 pages of excel documents. And there were about 40 some pages of receipts. Also, we can get audited, which means that if one thing is slightly wrong, we get screwed in the behind at competition.

I'll try to get a link to the report if I can so that everyone can see what it is. Also, thanks to Matt Yoder and Nick Balzer for finishing it.
