just strip a VIS out and track that. no turbo no issues just make it handle like on rails and lighten it as much as you can

As you know after seeing the Cinq, lightness is the key if you don't have mega power. I would say a 172 but that's a bit predictable

Too slow. 1k is too little a budget for a decent track car. As i have siad before a fully stripped 172 just about kept with a tuned non stripped dc5 on track running 250bhp not many tuned coupes could.

Any of these would be perfect, especially the 205 or 325. Trackdays are not about racing, so you don't actually have to go faster than anyone else... You just want the car to handle as well as possible and be good fun.

1 k will get you a bucket of a track car fact. buy a 172 cup strip it dont mod it prep it with nice rubber and go simples forget vts you would need a cammed setup to be nearly as quick a 172 cup. keep N/A for track in my op. And remember the car will need prep for a event which isnt cheap brakes,oil,filter,track alingment. dont waste money on tuning them as from my own experiance tuning them was very bad gains for ££ To add 172 wont get passed that much im trying to find the video vs tuned dc5
