Theres a middle way use it as a road car & enjoy it. Im a bit long in the tooth now a Peugeot 107 suits me better & the Cossies best suited to a lock-up but as a youngster loved fast road cars. My son still talks of mega fast trips with Mr. Lennon blaring from the Audio. The problem is today too much time is spent on the internet asking what to do instead of doing it.
rod ,and your point is what?

a you dont like bufty cars

b you dont like track cars

c buy a race car

d i should enter a race series ,like you did

e race around public roads ,in road/track car

f buy a peupeot 107,and lock the cossie away

g race around on public roads with my son in the car

h start listening to the beatles

i stay away from the a car forum ,takling about things that may be of interest and become a cynical old man

Just my thoughts..
