track car

[richi]

hi i am thinking of buying a nova track car, also looking into other makes of cars but nova is my first choice, got about 2 grand to spend what things should i be looking for as i would want one that is pretty much ready to go, seen some cheap 2ltr redtops with cage for cheapish but is there anything else that is needed, any help and advice welcome thanks alot richi

take your time looking for one, avoid ones with stereos, huge wheels and loads of chrome bolt ons.

Look for something which has been used on track before and has been built for that purpose so you know that the brakes and suspension are definitely up to it (ie. XE specific front springs and decent brake setup)

Cage and bucket seats aren't essential but definitely recommended
