Would like some input. Trying to decide whether my money is better spent on a basically race ready 4th gen LS car or for the same money...$12k...or a super high mileage c5 z06. I'm not racing or time trialing. I want a fun low maintenance track car to do HPDE weekends. Which would be more fun in, which might be faster. My closest track is the world reknown VIR. I have lots of seat time on that track, full course. Street driving is no concern of mine, I trailer my cars. Any input would be appreciated ! Thanks

Well, on the plus side, you could probably drive the Z06 on the street, if you ever need something in an emergency. BUT, you'll also need to have insurance on it. If there's an issue with the Camaro, you could just park it on the trailer until you get time/funds to fix it.
