Hi,

This tread has been quite quite for a while. Anyways just wanted if you could have any track car, which car would it be and why? Any pics of your own track cars?

Definitely the Mines R34 GTR. It's the ultimate response machine and to quote Tsuchiya, "It's so fast it'll make a dead man scream".

dream track car, 997 911GT3RS street legal track-biased car.
locally, hondas are the most popular. EK9 and EG6 especially. easy to maintain, superb handling, limitless tuning options etc etc.

short shifter, i do have a wira track car. it's got a bare shell n a rollcage. the rest of the stuffs, waiting for donation.

u can buy track car from proton. they do have some for sale. most of them are from proton scrap, but with good, brand new chassis. some of them have defects on other parts that u dont need to make the car a track car. they will sell the car along with some documents that can make the car road registered.

2 years ago, proton were selling brand new wajas to local racing teams for rm5000 to be made track cars, a way to boost sales of waja. but i rarely see any wajas in local racing events hehehe

 

[camshaft]

Big fan of Caterham here hehe!

Another great track car would be the Megabusa, a Suzuki Hayabusa-engine-powered kit car. Revs till 13k+ rpm! Sweet!

While you're at it, add a supercharger good for 300hp on a 486kg car.

So many people say the best track car is the lotus elise exige...wat u think?

IMO the Lotus Elise/Exige are more practical on the roads than those hard-core track cars like the Caterham and Ariel Atom. On track, I have no idea since I haven't driven any of those but I think since the Ariel Atom has the best power-to-weight ratio, it should be faster than the rest.
