car choice help

hi all, right after my duratec venture ending, i was thinking keep the 1.6 pinto, but get a track car and trailer, or build a track seven.

my dad would like to build another seven with me, but me to pay for this one.lol

so what options are there track car wise?

i will only doing a few airfields first as i have never done a track before, and do not want to damage the mk.

so what do guys and girls think?

cheers

stuart





black mk indy, 1.6pinto on cbr600 bike carb's.

Build a 750MC Locost... it'll be interesting to compare to your MK build as you have to focus on small margins in the build (weight, geo, driver comfort etc.)

Its genuinely fun on track although not genuinely quick in a straight line but a great place to start if you don't have experience on track. You can also upgrade as cash allows e.g. put a standard motor in first and then go for a blueprint when cash allows or you want to go racing... oh, and there's lots of people ready to give good advice.

Chassis etc available from Procomp, Aries, Allied Motorsports.
