Have two Novas, one to keep mint and the other for messing about it in on tracks and such. Thats what I would do if I had the space.

whilst trying not to sound insensitive to your ongoing medical condition.....whats the legal/insurance position on track day driving with no current road licence?

Showcar with a good spec engine/susp/brake setup for track, best of both worlds.

Dude, best thing is place the SR under a cover, forget it's there, and find other things to occupy your time with, as if you sold that car you would kick your self, unless you sell it for more that is...

BUT IMO i like both, but i cant keep a car in good enough condition to make it a show car, so i went for track as it's easy to maintain etc, but i like the idea of a nice shower too....

if it's bret's car your thinking of destroying, then never ever make it a track car. the car is stunning and a really fantastic example. it would be a real shame to make it onto a track car. thats my thoughts, but its your car now. so your call

Where has he said he'll turn the sr into a track car? :confused: he says he'll sell it to buy one...

track car gets my vote, I dont really get show cars, although I do love your sr lol

A combo of both think nick jacksons last 2 looked awsome and would make great track weapons Phil has used the yella peg a number of times on track intact that's about the only time it hose out now to be kicked to death at croft and it's still an awsome show car will be at nats hopefully next year
