Starletraje Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Ok so it reay looks like my starlet is gonna be written off.My thoughts are to strip it down and use it as a track day racer.Can anyone tell me what the bare minimum is that you absolutely HAVE to do to make the car useable on the track?Any easy Modification suggestions welcome.

Bourkey Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 HowdyEven if your only using it as a track car id make sure the chassis is straight and id get the boot floor sorted aswell. You wouldn't want it to crumble if you crashed it on the track.Im sure someone with more track experience wil be here shortly anyway.Bourkey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Starletraje Posted March 13, 2008 Author Share Posted March 13, 2008 If anyone if fife knows somewhere i could store the car that would be helpful... lockup or somewhere similar Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Galliano Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 take a look around industrial estates etc and see if theres any available.. or garages etc.. usually you can find them to let or the likes in the homes section of your local paper.good luck though mate.. wouldnt mind seeing the final outcome Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ste91 Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Strip the whole lot out, put the engine in the middle and make it RWD although that could be expensive Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ste91 Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 was a joke mate do you live near any tracks? it might be easier to find a lockup place near to a track so you can leave it there so it's nearer the track (if it's a write off I assume you're not going to be fixing it up for road use?)because if it was me I'd just leave it near a track, saves the hassle of having to transport it round everywhere (assuming it's not going to be road legal) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Starletraje Posted March 13, 2008 Author Share Posted March 13, 2008 sorry ste my response wasn't meant to be sarcastic of anything.i live about 5 miles from knockhill.unfortunately knockhill's in the middle of nowhere, so unless there is lockups on the site (which if there is will be at a premium) then that option may be difficult.I'll look into it thoughcheers.
