they may not be as enjoyable, but they are still enjoyable on the track.
the lighter the better in my book, but not everyone has the need, or means to have a cup, or dedicated track car.
and if i was buying a 430 for the street it wouldnt be the scud.
edit: it's a little bit elitist to pronounce that i no longer track street cars.
well icon.. i have to disagree.
i used to think AW is blowing smoke
then he let me drive his cup car.
soon after that i sold my GT3, b/c it was boring to drive after the cup car.
now if i can just get rid of my wife i would be driving a factory race car too.

i thought if we chuck the wives we'd be outta the money?
i'm w/ you! let's trade'm in on cup cars!
what do you figure porsche motorsport will give us on trade for the pair?
we need enough for transport too!
maybe if we knock'em up prior to trade?

so AW's the one that gave you that fateful ride . . .

Yeah, I'm trying to convince Mooty to come race with us. He would add more competition...

Mooty, have you tried explaining to your wife that a real race car with a cage, 6 points, fire system, unbolted doors, net, plexi windows, is much safer than any street car? I think that helped a lot to convince the boss.

Yeah right... Maybe you could sell one of your 10 cars?
