Run 4 cars per race, say 2-3 onwer drivers and 1-2 paid seat from our forum mates to help fund the racing

Entry can be as little as £300 for 2 races plus say £60 fuel. Tyres last for ever! and brakes pads are £50 for the whole car!

apart from the gayness of it what do you all think!

nail head hammer hit

£2k full conversion for racing sounds too cheap.

Cage, cut off, extinguisher, strip, seat, harness, spare seat, spare harness, race rims x8, Tyres x 8, pads, paint, decals, then all the bits that need upgrading that nobody tells you like coil packs, sparks, filter, exhaust, fluid, Ht kids, heat shields, oil coolers, diff coolers, brake cooling, weight saving,

Then you'll need to run in engine which is about £250, rolling road tune, £150.

If you let other do the work say £1500.
