Nothing against the 2-11, but have you considered the Ariel Atom? It's faster and at least as cheap to run.
They have a new Spec Racer Atom that's reasonably priced. This version is more track focused, with better suspension, more safety, less power (around 220hp), and can be raced. I just raced one last weekend at VIR, and it was a blast. Best lap time was 207.0.
I own the Atom in my Avatar, and have seen several 2-11's at the track, and none are ever close in pace. Mine's also street legal, and after 13K miles it's reliability's been almost flawless.

I've driven the 2eleven a number of times at the track.
Pros: Nimble, powerful up to 140ish, remarkable grip, parts aren't outrageous
Cons: Easy up to the limit, but the very limit can snap, at 140 it hits an aero/power wall, I don't fit too well (6'8" though)

Experience with 211?
Have you run the 211 yet? How would you compare it to the GT3? I'm in the market, and am debating between a 211 versus a nicely set-up GT3 or GT3RS. Would appreciate your advice. BTW, I too looked at the 211 you purchased
