Due to the less than great reliability of my GT6, the wife has authorized me
to buy another race car. (We'll keep the GT6 and run it occasionally as well)
Philosophical arguments of why the GT6 isn't cutting the mustard aside, I'm
looking for opinions of what to look for.
As a new vintage racer, I'm interested in maximum seat time. My wife races an
FV, and the terms DNS & DNF are totally foreign to her. I want to initially
spend well under $30k. Of course, a lot of the price is factored into just
how race ready a particular car is. I'm thinking along the lines of: TR4,
Turner, MGB, Alfa, etc. Probably an open car. (NOT an FV, I'm not going there
for several reasons...)
I know this is F/O TRIUMPH, but I figure there could be some objective folks
here who understand what I'm looking for and can offer suggestions. I really
need a car balanced slightly towards the reliability side versus hard edge
competitive side. I want a car that can finish races consistently.
Thoughts?
