Better yet, take it the full step beyond... and forget about track days and
street GT6's all together.
It's way more useful as a racer.
The real thrill of the Triumph world is Race cars.
All that Track day talk is building a car for 1/2 its duty both ways.
Spend all that time and money, drive on the street and have some big SUV
destroy it at a stop light.
When it come to GT6's, there are race cars and there are street cars and
never the two should be the same.
Race.
Full on Race.
It will be the best and worst decision you will ever make all at the same
time.
The fun and friendship that you get from racing the car will outweigh any
argument for the "track day concept".
If you do either "properly" you will likely spend the same amount of money.
But you will have way more fun racing.
And you will be actually racing the thing.
there is nothing better.
We will give you all the help you need.
