Ex J Palmer car for trackdays?

I fancy a stopgap car for trackdays and reckon the Palmer car might be ideal - dry sump/Crane/oil coolers/designed for the job.
Do you reckon there's a chance of it surviving 20ish trackdays this summer? Rapid SBC death?

not if it has already done 20??Do you reckon there's a chance of it surviving 20ish trackdays this summer? Rapid SBC death?

why a stopgap car?? they too quick for you

The Great Plan is summer onwards to build a bulletproof LS7 trackday car but this won't be finished until the new year. But I want to drive one now!!!
I was hoping that grabbing the Palmer car would allow me instant Ultima jollies with acceptable reliability. So the question is, does anybody think the Palmer car would poke up with a busy track summer?
The weather is set spot-on for Goodwood on Saturday and I have to drive the Turbobarge .... V8 would be good
Kyle - you guessed right, most cars are too quick for an old scrote like me .......

hi,
If you are interested, I will be selling my sport very shortly as I have now have a GTR.
It has a new 5.7 fuel injected engine built by Mike Huddart racing engines (only covered 1000 miles).
If you would like any further details, please contact me.

The car will see a lot of trackdays so needs to be strong rather than pretty .....
