QUOTE(freestone @ Sep 1 2003, 09:49 AM) Is a car with this much horsepower really controllable? What about in the wet? Why didn't he upgrade the seats I wonder? And the rollcage. Is that really necessary for the street (car obviously isn't for the track or it would need fuel cell, cut off switches, etc)? With a cage like that, would someone taller than 6'2" fit? Looks like a lot of work. I saw someone do that to a '74 911 all out, and they got $30k for it despite having a legitimate $80k in it. Tough. well, what about in the wet ? get good tires, learn to drive, learn throttle discipline. there's nothing magick about driving in the wet you can't learn by driving on ice ... maybe he liked the stock seats; i do. there is rarely a firm set of rules about when a cage is "necessary" outside something like the PCA Zone 7 or 8 DE/TT competition series. you can drive a car like that on the track in a TracQuest event or similar Driver's Ed events in many parts of the country without a cage being "necessary" although at some point it starts to seem like a really good idea. you don't need kill switches, fire bottles, fuel cells, window nets, or any of those other things to enjoy the car at speed in a proper on-track DE event. just because it isn't 'obviously' "for the track" doesn't mean it's never been (or couldn't be) driven there. as for size - i donno. i'm not 6'2" so it wouldn't be a factor for me. yes - cars like these are for personal pleasure. they are not investments. as such, you prepare them the way you like, enjoy them, sell them for what you can get when you decide it's time for something else. |
