Tim Allen is no longer talking to Steve Saleen. He lost more money than he ever intended during the short time he was involved with Steve.

Tim Allen did not lose one dime with Steve Saleen. He spent his own money to own a race team with Steve Saleen and drive his own race cars and quit successfully. It costs a lot of money to own and drive your own race car.

In 1995, Saleen formed the Saleen/Allen "RRR" Speedlab with Tim Allen. The team of Steve Saleen, Tim Allen, and Bob Bondurant set new track records and won the final race of the SCCA World Challenge series.

For 1996, The Saleen/Allen "RRR" Speedlab, with teammates Steve Saleen and Tim Allen won the SCCA Manufacturers’ Championship with the SR Wide body Saleen Mustang. Saleen also won at Watkins Glen International Raceway.

In 1997, Saleen/Allen "RRR" Speedlab competed at 24 Hours of Le Mans for the first time, marking the Mustang's first return in over 30 years. Saleen also clinched the SCCA Manufacturers’ Championship title for the third time.

1998 brought more wins for the Saleen/Allen "RRR" Speedlab. The team won both the SCCA Manufacturers' and Drivers' Championship titles.

A quote from Tim Allen from his website.

I had the fortunate opportunity to form a partnership with Steve Saleen and created Saleen/Allen Speedlab Racing. For me, it was truly, a dream come true. To actually be a part of the racing team and participate in SCCA World Challenges is well… beyond comprehension. First, you learn the rules of racing. Then you get out on the track in a race and you’re going fast—really fast. All you care about is getting round that next corner, shoving on the gas, and getting round the next corner. Nothing else in your life really matters at that moment—it’s all testosterone and technique.
