Your £140k track car

[nuttinnew]

I wonder if the Camaro in the vid thread would be in budget?

[MikeHunt]

Based on extensive research (playing gran turismo on the ps5) I’m going for a 458 f1.

[Rich B]

It’s a GT3 for me. it’s the default answer for a reason.

[nuttinnew]

The budget should be enough to prise the ex (Andy?) Forrest Westfield from the current owner.

[jamcg]

I’d be cheeky and go for the full package, get there in luxury and have the knowledge you can smash it up and still get home. With that in mind

W12 bentagaya tow car

Ultima spider for open top v8 loudness (wonder how many black flags you can get for noise?)

Leaving you 10k change to get a trailer.


If it has to be a road going car and you can only buy one it would be go buy a gt Porsche of some kind

[speedingfine]

That Ultima looks the business. Almost cheap for that money.

Denied - Open wheeled cars not allowed on track days!

[Beany]

It's almost like people aren't taking this highly likely scenario seriously or something!

Say you find a testing day in December, single seaters allowed. How long do you think you'd last in a GP2 type car on Pirelli slicks? I'm thinking you'd get as far as deactivating the pit limiter and one up shift

Denial denied. A quick google reveals that Javelin have a formula trackday on 19th March.

Your arbitration has made a mockery of the sanctity of the ov9 poll system and I'm disappointed in you.

Slicks? In December? I'd be running on p6000s!

No, you just need to downgrade to racing mittens until you've learned.

[Wilspeed]

This is my current track car. Not a 140K item, but it requires lots of CA$H to keep it running, so there's that.

[Matty]

Did you buy that this year? If so, I'm overruling FECPOTY 2026. Sorry Dan....but

[mik]

Wilspeed that looks like no fun whatsoever. Not jealous.

Thats fine, now FECPOTY 2025 is done and dusted.

[dan]

lets not get ahead of ourselves, I might put a stripe down the side of it this year.
