I've been participating in HPDE's for the better part of two years now in my 2000 GT and I've decided I want something just a bit more dedicated.
While I love the looks and power of my current GT, I'm pretty afraid of stuffing it at the track when I'm still making payments on it. The fact that I really can't afford to modify the car also is a little frustrating.
There's a guy selling a 1993 GT a few hours away from me that seems nearly perfect. It has a fairly new WC T-5 with newer clutch and a 5-lug conversion with Cobra brakes all around. It also has an Autopower roll-bar and Cobra front and rear bumpers and decent looking blue paint. The guy is asking around 6k for this GT with approximately 93k on the clock.
I've got a little bit of a soft spot for the older hatchbacks, plus it would be a bit more practical for hauling my stuff to and from the track. Plus I think they're a bit more spacious for rear passengers than my 2000.
Should I sell off the 2000 and go for an older Fox body? Or should I stick it out until I'm through paying on the 2000 and go from there.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks, Matt.
