Tried my hand at this one time late last year. Went to watch one in Indy first, then entered one in the Evansville area and I think I might become a regular. Ended up buying new summer tires, and a spare set of wheels... But it's a Miata so everything is reasonable cost wise.
I currently have an 02 Miata... and although it's an absolute hoot to "race" around the cones, it's not the most practical.
Been looking for a fun car that might be a little bit better at the track, but still drive able to the occasional job, which in general are in bigger cities, and I prefer to drive vs flying... I work from home most of the time so it's not like I need a daily driver.
I have a dually for hauling / trailering duties.
Currently torn between well used corvette C5's, barely used latest body style mustang, or a nearly new Focus ST.
Gas mileage and insurance all seem reasonable. Maintenance on the vette seems pretty steep... Tires are almost 300 a piece!
Any thoughts?
In the past Ive had some decent cars, and I like to turn...
2004 Focus SVT
1999 Trans am LS1 6spd
1997 Camaro LT1 6spd
1998 Grand Cherokee 5.9
