Howdee,
i'm keen to build a track car so i dont stack the marea before her time, i have norrowed it down to a choice of 2 cars/projects that i think are suitable so would appreciate any opinions/input/experience people have.
my first choice was an S1 106 Rallye, just to be stripped out, caged and the usual stuff.
the second is to build a Tipo Turbo, i like this idea because it would be fun to build and could be done on quite a small budget as the tipo's are going cheap as well as the 16v turbo coop's, i'm not phased by the building of the project just wonder if it is a suitable car for track use or if it will be too much of a handful?
i've been driving the Marea for some 2 years and she has been out around castle combe on a number of occasions and i love how she drives but i'm scared of trashing her, a second marea isnt an option as they are just too expensive on maintainence and general up-keep - i know a tipo turbo wont be cheap but its just a bit more interesting so i would foot the bills
Thanks,
Ry
