Building a race car is always expensive, buying a race car that has already been built is always the cheapest. Two 370z for sale on racingjunk.com now, either will be at least competitive one would destroy 911s and comes with all the big ticket spare parts.
I am not ashamed to say I did it wrong. I thought I was just building a fast street car and then I decided to go to the track. Yes the car made me fast but it definitely hindered my learning curve because the better you get with fast car, the you go and the more you are asking it to kill you. So my advise to those that want to be a fast diver is to spend $6 to $8k on a Miata and go have fun for a couple of years. You can sell the car for what you paid for it and put into your build or faster race car.
Rusty and Elmo370z like this.
