I viewed that listing yesterday looks like a great deal.
To bad I am a bit nervous of hitting someone or some thing in an open wheel car, a little old and have been away from full size race cars for some 20 years. If you find a good sedan let me know I am thinking of getting back behind the wheel but want to start slow and cheap.
I hope this doesn't make the closed wheel guy's nervous  Grin

Al has sold his MGB but John Carroll's beautiful '72 Mallock Mk2 is still for sale on the VRCBC web site.(www.vrcbc.ca) Just a suggestion.   Smiley

I love the Donohue quote!
I have a 90 Honda Civic for sale, perfect for driver training and novice races (it won't leave much rubber out of the corners!).
$3500 ready to race.

Thanks guy's for you input, the Mallock may be something I would look at once I get a few hundred laps under my belt. The Honda of Keith's may be more my speed at this time. I do have a 89 Corolla GTS that is stripped and was going to be a Hornet for my kid's for oval racing. The car is at a point where it could go either road racing or oval. I will probably use it for drivers training, not sure how it would do in IP3. With only 115HP it would be light!!

Rent to buy is available for the Civic Wink.
GTS's used to run in IP3 but no more as they aren't competitive in the class. (There is a minimum weight in IP3).

Thanks Keith, good to know the Boy's will be happy to keep the GST as a Hornet. They ran quarter midgets for 8 years and only know how to turn left LOL.

I raced at Agassiz Speedway in Mini Stocks for 11 years and Hornets for one year. I really enjoy oval track and would recommend it to anyone who wants 'wheel to wheel' experience (and a little door to door too Roll Eyes!).
