Which car for the track

[Bounce]

As above,i would buy another CSL.Dont bother with the M5.

M5 too big/heavy for serious track work

If you have that much dough to have the cars you have, buy a RR, fit a tow bar. Buy a trailer, then get a very track focused car built.

Thats what I would do if I was a £ behind you

Steve Gill used to tow his CSL with his X6 so no need for a RR as he's already got an X6M

Would LOVE to be able to say something like but I've NEVER been overtaken by a CSL when not in my CSL, very rarely see a CSL on the open road. (Could I say CSL any more times in that last sentence?)

Get away from the idea of V10's for track use, despite their fantastic lightweight engineering, they're just too heavy. Go light such as has been mentioned, Caterham, Atom, Radical etc etc.

Good luck in whatever you decided and keep us updated.

The thing is I'm not into radicals and caterhams. They are very fast but I just don't know I'd rather have a car than some scaffolding (no offence to anyone who owns one). I'm now thinking of getting another CSL as recommended and supercharging it. What about that ??

Gt3 / rs or buy a caymen s, strip it out and create your own rs version ?

Or MX5 ?

Thats not a bad idea. I never even thought about that. But you've got to understand that the cars only going to be used once a month. But from what I've heard it can be driven day to day if wanted. I think I'm going to look at a GT2 first then a GT3. Can someone here think of a good excuse for the wife lol.
Apart from the CSL i've not kept a car longer than 6 months !!

(Is it really justifiable spending around 70-100k for a car thats going to get driven a few times a month)

I'm really confused . There's too many options

I would buy a 997 GT3 Gen 1. Clubsport pack. That'll do all your after from what you've told us and you can pick them up for £60k and slightly under now.
