What's your track car?

[Chris71]

Some of the categories probably overlap and there's bound to be something I've missed, but what best describes your track toy? Curious to see what the percentages are.

[E55 Max]

I voted other road sports car as I couldnt find a category that states 'Silver Estate car with baby seat in the back'
Mind you 480ish Bhp as standard makes it track worthy

[AndrewW-G]

tweaked 911/964, or when I can afford the fuel and if it can be bodged to pass the noise test, my very silly tweaked Ferrari 400i

[matt 2LT]

where is the mildly modified coupe option

as that is where my E46 328CI would fit.

Sounds interesting. How far have you modified it? That must turn a few heads amongst all the usual track day fayre. I've seen a couple of Ferraris on track, but never a 400-Series.

Indeed, more details please!!

I really like these cars and perversely they actually look quite compact these days compared to modern family hatches.

Really? I must admit it's been a very long time since I've seen one in the flesh. Damnit, I feel a visit to the classifieds coming on...

Removed a lot of the weight from it (air con, electric releases etc) which coupled with a more modern Motec ignition system and a 4 speed + overdrive auto box, makes it a bit of a sleeper
Other tweaks include a decent sports exhaust rather than the almost limo quiet 200+lbs factory job, the standard hydraulic Koni self level suspension is a small fortune to overhaul, so that was replaced with adjustable Bilsteins and H&R springs, modern wheels and tyres replace the ancient and rock hard Michelin Milimetric jobs which together with its diet and a set of Porsche "big red" brembo brakes, means it’s a little better round corners.

So nothing massively complicated or clever, but enough to give it some get up and go and upset the odd 348/355/360 driving novice round Oulton ................................................. and all for less than £8k including the car, who knows one day I may even have the spare cash to paint it and make it look pretty
Next project when the bank manager isn’t looking too hard, is a Turbo R spec RR Corniche Coupe

As for the size of the thing here it is next to a Ghibli (about the same size as a E46 Coupe)

Track car? surely you mean Track cars as what self respecting petrolhead only has one?

1- Leave at 'ring car
2- Hardcore tracker for uk
3- Softer road & track tracker for euro trips

One car can't posibly fulfill all the criteria needed
