ok got a couple of reply's here so bare with me...
@Nigel Prodrive
1) Yes, I like autoX when ever I watch it I am always jealous that I am not in the car
2) Umm... from what people tell me I am a great driver, from exp I know how to drive on different roads with different conditions, such as driving on dirt, snow, snow and dirt, mud, tar, tar with dirt, tar and snow, also know how to control my car from spinning out of control when I drive over black ice, know how to take a corner at max performance, know how to drift, umm... I just know my car very well, and want to do more with it, but as for actually racing in AX total NOOB.
3) I am more into building and then just having fun with it, don't really care if I win at AX, just as long as I have fun at it I really don't care if I win or lose
4.) Yes, and no... I have a car I could use but I don't know how long mentally I could withstand being in it, it's a 85 Volo Wagon....top speed 60...
5.) Civic... from what I learned from the annual drive, don't they break easily? lol
@Pedro
Looking at more CMC got about $8K right now to play with, that goes with saying I would like to spend less if I can but I def think performance over money.
A Miata really??? something is just off when I look at it...
@boxer3main
Thanks for the suggestions I mite just do that, and then get another car for AX
@2point5RS_Dan and EvilAsPie
As for the engine type it's a DOHC 4-valve 2.5 liter F4 w/Multi-point fuel injection, Torque is 162 @ 4000 rpm, and Horsepower is 165 @ 5600 rpm
Also if you think I am biting more off than I can chew, let me know I am fine with taking smaller bits, if you professionally think that is best.
I am also not looking to make a career out of this, just as a hobby, I love driving my car so I am just looking for something more that I can do with it.
