I've started building the engine now for my XR2 Zetec Turbo, so getting closer to getting it on the road ready for some track action, however before I take it on track next summer, I want to get into practice and attend a few days next year to get to grips with different tracks and my technique etc.

So, I want to buy something cheap that I can use on track to practice in, as opposed to stuffing the XR2 once its finished

Just wondering what sort of cars would be OK on the track? The cheaper the better ideally, choice suspension mods etc, performance not an issue as its more just to get used to the tracks and technique of my driving instead of all out speed.

Cheers

standard 1.9 205 gti is pretty good for it

as above, Better than an Xr too imo

Thought of 205 as well...

What about MK2 Golf GTi 16v? Have always wanted a Golf GTi

ive driven a couple of golf gti's

std suspension is dog wank
the steering wheel is not in front of you, its off to the left, but not as bad as a nova lol
the brakes were shite

and i reckon the 1.9 205 is quicker

205 it is then. Done a bit of Googling and they all seem to be positive comments.

Gotta find one now
