this seems more of an events day, so let me know if I should spin it off into a thread..
Considering (in about 6 months) selling my Z4 and just having the one car. Work is changing so more working from home should allow us to juggle the one car effectively.
The wife's A3 is comfortable and practical, but not much fun (actually no fun at all). So inevitably I'll get the itch for a cheap, fun runabout. As it doesn't need to be a daily driver, I'm wondering about doubling it up as a trackday car.
So I'd like some advice. Is it practical to run a roadcar on trackdays? Is it practical to get a trackday car and use it now and again on roads? or are there just too many compromises and costs and it'd be simpler to do one or the other?
and how about suggestions for a good car? After driving one on a track, I'd love an exige, but budget probably won't stretch. It might stretch to an older elise, or perhaps an MX5? what other things will need considering?
edit: just seen earlier in the thread. Used to have an '03 WRX, they'd be fairly cheap now - or a bugeye. E36 is interesting - any reason the E46 isn't as good? just fatter? And older E46 would be cheap and be usable as a runabout |
