You will also have a lot more fun starting in a lower hp car and learning how to manage momentum and concentrating on driving, rather than dealing with a high HP car where the only thing you're managing is surviving the session without getting in over your head, and worrying about the brakes/engine.
I feel like I've gone over this argument with you guys a few times already hah. And again, no offense, but I would not enjoy buying a shitbox and tracking it. It's just not what I'm into. Yes, I'd be fine with these shitboxes "rolling" me at the track with seasoned racers behind the wheels. Read my last post and maybe you'll understand what my mentality is on investing in a car I own.

I also don't approach a new challenge like that negatively, aka "surviving the session." If my car makes it to the track, which again only time is going to permit heh, I'll upgrade the brake pads for comfort's sake and push it to how hard I feel comfortable. I'd rather learn how to road race in my own car that I enjoy than another shitpiece that I bought just so I could learn how to track my other car which I would never otherwise track. I'm 100% sure I'd go at it with a positive, safe attitude because that's how I learn anything I do. From work to pleasure.
