Hello!
So for the last few weeks (since @Jimmy_B destroyed my spine with his Mazda) I've been thinking about getting some kind of road legal track car, mainly because I'm a bit of prat and think that it would be a good way of getting some experience on track, improving my skills, and obviously having some fun too.
The reason I'd obviously like it to be road legal is so I can drive it to/from circuits, thrash it around and then drive it home again. Simple. As long as I don't end up in the barrier of course.
My current road car is a Hyundai i30N and whilst I've thought about taking that out on track, a number of reasons make me sceptical, the primary one is the unnecessary wear it would put on components and of course the potential risk of being without a road car for a while.
So if I was to buy a road legal track car, where do you think I should look? I'm very keen on it being RWD and not to spend over £10k. I've been looking at something like an S2000 (a couple of which I've seen on eBay) as I've always been keen to see what a VTEC lump would be like on track. That said, I am open to options.
Looking forward to hearing from a few of you, and thanks very much in advance!
