There pretty quick and will see low 15 sec passes all day but it's a bit of a waste as they handle amazing so would be better suited on track IMO.

If you do a proper track day, you probably won't bother driving in straight lines for fun again.

Used to take my old saxo to the strip,
Killed one box with standard lump, (dif through the casing)
Then another 5 (2 input shafts, and 3difs through the casing) with nitrous and a paddle clutch.
Excellent for the track, not the strip.

Its a vts turbo with a quafiee sequential box in it and pretty sure it has nos wired up too . There are videos of it on youtube beating a skyline lol . Can't post the link as I'm on my phone .

They are near enough identical cars but the saxo's are cheaper. 4-2-1 manifold, decat system cams and a remap will be very quick. Strip it out too!
