thanks for the input folks. I understand the jack of all trades master of none concept - my current street/track car gets more and more difficult to drive on the road as I fiddle with it - having a track car and a street car would be the best soln, but budget and garage space become the limiting factors.

up here there are not a lot of cars running vintage, so traffic would be an issue regardless - old sport racers on the track with street tr3s at the same time, so a mild race prepped car wouldn't be too disappointing (even a karmann ghia, if I could get a bus engine in it).

a also hear you folks re the sprites and midgets, however just don't like the looks of 'em. the tr's are nice cars with more engine but the gt6 has a place in my heart having had a spit in my younger days. i think there is less objective decision making when it comes to vintage racing than typical club racing.

having said that, there is a really nice streetable race-prepped 914 for sale cheap on my side of the border right now (keep it Porsche! keep it mid-engined!) and two tvrs ...
