But in cyprus they REALLY do know how to mod properly. I've seen quite a few NOS'd bikes in cyprus over the years but the turbo'd hayabusa is going to take some beating. The marina at night particularly finnikoudes is a hotspot for modded cars. Saw 5 parked evos one night there

*Where if I was in front and discourteous, he would NOT have been able to overtake, as I was CONSIDERABLY faster down the straights - however, as I know from my last engine how frustrating it is to be quicker through the corners but slower on the straights, once he was close enough, I indicated, came off the throttle and let him past down the back straight, as I knew the next sequence of corners after that, he would pull a significant enough of a lead for me to not be held up down the main straight.

I have to agree with Mike, well matched cars are more fun.
A few years ago me and a mate took our 2l novas to a airfield trackday, my car had Reyland brakes, his had nitrous
I have never had so much fun on a trackday ever since, He just couldn't get past me, but then I couldn't really get away from him, 20 or so laps in we came onto the main straight and he added his secret 100hp
The rest was history
I have driven a Atom on track and tbh even with myself driving and it not being my car I was miles faster than anything on track, and that was just with a 250hp NA Type R lump ! let alone the supercharged engine it has in it now
I'd rather take something less powerful and push the big power cars round all day than take something with massive power and not really proove anything except how fucking mental it is on the straights

Most trackdays now dont actually allow you to perform the outbreaking and overtaking manouvres on corners that make closely matched cars so interesting sadly.
I havent had anywhere near as much fun on track in the last 10 years or so since the rules all got tightened up.
You used to be able to basically race on trackdays, you cant now really.
So really the best answer, would be spend 10K on a competitive car in a fiarly low level single make championship and spend the other 40K on campaiging it for a couple of years
