As said on Page 490. I want a track car today.. yes

!!!BLAME WACKOJACKO!!! (His MR-2 video looks soo much fun!)

Track Toy - 600.



Would this be a good base? Me and a mate started talking today and we would want to strip it, cage it, and just have fun.

EDIT: Also, place a huge PH sticker on bonnet at an angle! biggrin

We wouldn't get a track toy until late 2012/2013..

If your going for a B EM i would make sure it had a 6 pot so, 320, 323, 325, 328 and make sure it is a manual biggrin

E36's are so tempting, very cheap and are popular home made circuit cars.

The Saloons are much better than the Coupes IMO.

I want to get a cheap RWD track toy for a year (or so). If I were to go FWD, I would get an Honda Integra DC2 track toy. lick

Ghey wheel drive..... FWD may well be quicker in some instances... RWD is so much more fun.

Looks decent, wouldn't bother stripping, caging etc to start with.... revamp cooling system, M50 Manifold then take it out and give it some abuse.

saloons are much better IMO technically torsionally stiffer, real world easier to chuck stuff in the back such as tools, wheels etc.

Front wheel drive, you need RWD.... I'm a great car sales man. I'll be stripping it next week if it's not gone.

I can't think of a finer way of turning money into noise.

yikes

That's awesome! And at that price the engine alone must be worth more, surely?

All that talk of Alfas made me think of Alfa 159s, then I found this:

I think the 159 is one of the few cars that can get away with white!
