No plans to sell, but I really dig the current generation Civic Type R.

Yeah grew up as a stop light racer. No interest in road racing. I wish I was capable of really building and maintaining a drag car. I always had to rely on buddies that really new what they were doing. Consequently never tried to go sanctioned racing. Just played around at test and tune nights when the guys that knew what they were doing were going to really test and tune not play like me.

I'm liking the poll results so far, they seem pretty accurate.
The GT350 is a good car with a very interesting engine, the Dark Horse is the new shiny thing, the Mach 1 is complete meh, and interest in a non-Mustang followup is 10x stronger, because these things can't replace the Camaro.

I would have to drive the S650 before I committed to it as a track car. I've driven some pre 19' GT350s and loved the motor, everything else was meh. The main complaint was the lack of overall balance and refinement chassis wise, not taking into account overheating, sloppy transmission and lack of feedback. But man, I love that motor!
That is very tough price range for a track car and quite honestly, the SS 1LE is still king. Looking at the 65k options, there aren't many, though I would pick the C7 GS at this moment. Off topic - My son sold his MK7.5 GTI and went with a 2023 Elantra N and for it being basically stock, the track performance is mind blowing. Ken

I really want a C8, but that is a whole other budget level. Terry F. has a new Dark Horse with track pack or whatever they call it and he ran it stock (off the trailer) on one of tracks I run and equaled my best lap times on 200TW. I think the DK has better tires. He's working on doing some more mods and more testing so it will be interesting to see how a track prepped DK performs. He has also built his own version of a Mustang GT3/4 based on a S550 that is highly modded and crazy fast on 200TW. He posts everything on FB.

Is it just me, or does the dark horse look as bad as the mid-year refresh of the Camaro SS?

My ZLE will be paid off in less than 2 years. Around that time, I'll refresh the engine, do a few mods, and keep on racing.

Yup, it's almost even worse.

Well, at the least the wheels are an improvement. Not sure what possessed them to go with the "snowflake" ones that they've been using on the M1.
And I guess we should be honored that with the DH body it looks like they are trying to pay tribute to the Camaro. Having said that, I'll stick with the Camaro. |
