Honda Civic with a few simple mods would have been my choice They're incredibly cheap to maintain and modify. Strip out the interior and throw on a super charger and you have an easily tossable car with an excellent power to weight ratio. Quality coilovers and sticky tires to get that power down. Plus supporting and reliability mods, obviously. My buddy couldn't keep up with one in his V8 Mustang and he puts down better laptimes than people in 700hp Shelbys and Corvettes.

Road and Race make sure you've got one that has proof of the dephaser pulley and cambelt being changed recently. Otherwise it's expensive job on a cheap car. People tend to sell when they need changing. Lots of good cars for sale on the clio sport Facebook page. Join that and you'll soon see some cars being advertised worth looking at. Where are you guys based?

Hey guys, awesome idea! It reminds me of the Car Throttle "The Ultimate Lexus IS 200 Track Build" series and I loved it! But if your budget allows, you should buy definitely a second car as a contender for the Clio. I think the E36/E46 or the EP3 would be fastest on track and the BMWs for sure the most fun. Additionally it would be great to have a competition between FWD and RWD for a budget track car. PS: Why are cars in UK so cheap?! In Germany and the USA you have to spend over 5k for a 330i or a Type R!
@RoadandRacetv
@RoadandRacetv 7 лет назад
+DarkSubZer0 Thanks mate. Our series will be like the Car Throttle one but much more in depth. Would like another car but money is tight at the moment! No idea why the cars are cheaper, maybe someone will tell us?
@DarkSubZer0
@DarkSubZer0 7 лет назад

You made the right choice guys. You could also check the Megane F7R or Xsara VTS which would be the 2 cheapest car of your list. The Megane's f F7R is a legendary engine. You can easily get like 200hp with out turbo'ing it.

built an Audi track car once, 820kg, 850 bhp, 912bhp in qualifying mode. it went round corners like an F1 car. it would only cost £40k today. be hard to see what you could buy new for that, and actually beat it....so everyone should build an Audi Super Tourer and forget the rest.

I've been involved building a couple of 182 cups, but the gearboxes are chocolate ..... You have been warned 😂, Honda would be my choice of the 2 - plenty of tuning available and a whole lot tougher, I'd always go for a Bmw though, rear wheel goodness

Hi gents, what was the mileage on the car when you bought it? Or does it not matter to much when purchasing a car for track build/use? Looking at purchasing a MK6 Fiesta ST, it will be my first build, so any advice would be extremely helpful. M

Excellent! Looking forward to it. Suggestions? Possible engine modifications you've been looking at (if any)? Things you'd do differently when buying an M3 again. Perhaps test driving another M3 and comparing the two? More track time in the M3?
