I think you should turn up and have a geezer at the competitive events and have a look at how hard some of these guys push ( yes I know you have been to Twighlight etc but spend the whole day watching, not just in the car with your eyes closed codriving for Douggie

)
I know its just a thought at this stage but I often think of banging 5 hot blonde chicks at once and thats never going to happen because my mates remind me that I have a head like a St Bernard.

Fair enuff burke.. I will speak to some of the guys that entered this year and ask what they thought was the entrant types..

As i keep harping this is only an idea and i wouldnt be just going over there without jumping in the car a fair few times on both collie and barb tracks. Getting some one on one pointers from track professionals.. So its not going to be car is completed and driving in August lets take it down to WTA...

It seems to have bits of everything, but a track car does not work as a show car and vice versa for obvious reasons.

If it was going to WTA it will be in clubsprint class which requires to have full interior even including the radio. So car should fit in to this i think..

In terms of what the car is.. its got a little bit of everything i suppose which is probaly its achilles heel. However it does have more power than most so weight issues can be overcome (although its probaly close to stock sti weight). Handling wise has got everything except real race coilovers (but most people dont have this in anycase).

So imo its a track car (minus cage) and a street car. Show car not sure, not entirely imo..
