Debate on: What is the best car for racing for under $6k?
What is the best car for all racing types for under $6k?
This has to accel mainly at Drag racing and Circuit track.
This car has to be reilaiable, handles exceptionaly well, quick 1/4mile time stock, acceration is unbeatable for it's price range, and has tobe quick in the slaloms. Needs to be easy to find parts and mods for it aswell.
My vote would be for the 1992 MR2 turbo.
