Ok, I've been around long enough to see some impressive results if you want to drive a barra turbo for around 10 seconds..bang for buck I don't think there is much better.
But what about circuit racing? Aside from the sound not being great and the falcon being bit over weight I see the b series xr6t as not a bad way to get some power and have generally speaking cheap parts. I have my eye on one now and was interested to hear from others who have or know anyone that tracks them? I've been doing some track days with BMW I6s and note their straight line speed but suspect on reliability and the ability to do more than 3 or 4 laps without something get to hot. Generally speaking I expect to be able to do 10 hard laps minimum. Im understanding that most cars need a couple of mods to handle track abuse but im not wanting to have to re engineer the entire car.
