I understand where Lee is coming from.
To us, a car is a tool. The end goal is the racing/track So getting the cheapest and most efficient tool for the job is the best decision. For Lee, its more of an overall experience. Not just getting on the track, but getting his car on the track. Maybe after a while he will fall in love more with the activity than the vehicle, at which time he may buy a cheaper track car, who knows. Thats kind of how it happened for me.
But he has to get his ass to the track first anyway! (no more excuses ricer!
)
And RJ, dont forget that the ITR was not the smartest car to track either, but you loved it, and you wanted to track it. Not a bad thing.
i had a passion for tracking my WRX and sometimes I miss it. I was just in love with the car, I like the miata and Ive grown to like it more but its just not quite the same all the time.
