Default Combining Car Wars and Family Business

A discussion on Twitter regarding RPG campaigns had a reply that stated a campaign was run that combined Car Wars with the board game Family Business. This idea sounded very interesting, therefore I created this thread. The tweets discussing the topic are presented below.

What is the craziest #RPG idea you have ever come up with?

We combined Family Business and Car Wars so that disputes between crime families were resolved in the arena but assassination of pit crew was a valid tactic.

Was sabotage of vehicles in the pits before arena events permitted in your Family Business-Car Wars campaign?

Absolutely cut brake lines , pollution in fuel tanks and slashed tyres all part of the fun

I asked about sabotage because the Underground Market in the 1996 computer game Death Rally has an option for sabotage. You should post your campaign's rules on a blog. Car Wars players would like to read them.

I'd love to but it was so long ago and some of it was made up on the fly. It just wouldn't do it justice if I tried to do a write up. I remember one player having his entire crew wiped out before he even got into his car because every other player called a hit on him. 😱
