O.k one of you nice, generous (hint, hint) fellow PHers must be kind enough to buy me this for Christmas? You know the giving spirit in all, helping one another, fellow comraderie etc etc.

Anyone?

Please?

Swap you a paperclip?

So exactly what is the spec and performance of a Formula Challenge?

You could do a lot of track-days in a Gull Saker for the price.

The charity thing is a good idea but it's essentially $150 per lap. yikes

hehe like to buy it for myself! Your better off just booking a day with the Formula Challenge Co and getting heap more laps plus for that kind of money you could stay somewhere nice in Taupo and possibly have change left over.

Your forgetting about the hot laps in the GT3. That'd be an experience. Some more Driver training wouldn't go amiss. The motorsport celeb dinner could possibly be interesting. It was really a bit tongue in cheek Still be a neat couple of days out tho.

Yeah if thats what you want then keep asking these guys nicely Actually.... you could ask Renn68 on here for when the next Porsche track day is down in Taupo. Go along with your helmet and you never know He may be able to swing you a ride. Just a thought.

When I had my 993 and 965T I shared some pretty spirited rides in GT3's, 993RS, 996TT, 996 GT3RS but a Cup Car would be something else!
