I've only seen one or two at any of the events I have gone to.
Why aren't more people running these? http://www.racingjunk.com/GT/181857536/GTA...ay-Ex-ASA-.html Does anyone have less than $19K (including purchase price of car) into their cars? I guess I'm saying these seem like a great buy and I'm sure extremely fast and safe. |

That is a real race car, IMO most folks running HPDE are there to exercise their street car. Making the jump to a race car usually involves modifying their street car, or buying one to fit a particular class.
While there is a place for an ASA car (if it's a symmetrical chassis) in both SCCA and NASA, those classes are wide open money classes, so either no way to win, or no one to race with. Consumables are on the high end of cost, and routine maintenance is more demanding than a racified street car. This post has been edited by Blainefab: Jul 4 2013, 01:58 AM |
