Whether or not this is a track car is up for debate...
'99 1.6 VTR with "weight reduction", fancy suspension and track tyres
Never been on track - infact it hasn't come out of the garage for nearly 6 years...

This is my little beauty. Porsche 924S
It handles very well but is a little under powered compared to modern engines.
May fit a Porsche 968 engine in it one day?

I've got my baby beetle, 20vt conversion, coilovers, pollybush, Stripped out, bucket seats and harness, I use it for various track days, shows and road trips, did the nurburgring last month with a load of mates, I'll load up some pictures at some point :-)

What's the best way to get your car to the Nurburgring other than driving it? I guess a trailer. I am considering getting a Ariel Atom end of year/early next and driving it all that way will not be an option really as I wouldn't have any hearing when getting there! curious how people do it.

Don't tell the Mrs

I have a Metro GTI track car. Well, it's actually a 1.1 shell done as a GTI replica.

It's had quite a bit done to it but it's currently not got the engine in it.

It's had new rear quarter panels on each side, new doors, wings, bumpers, rubbstrips etc and a complete re-paint in flame red (it was previously nightfire red). It's had the strengthened GTI strut tops welded in, rear turrets, locks and 'foreign' wiper holes/rear wipe welded and filled. Welded to MSA spec, full safety devices roll cage, internal brake lines with adjustable bias, hydraulic clutch conversion, rear strut brace, rear wheel well delete, MGF clocks/subframe/brakes etc. Lotus Elise 160vvc engine (also found in MG-TF/Rover Mg Zr160), Dave Andrews ported head, aftermarket exhaust cam with offset dowels, Janspeed manifold, full stainless system with cat bypass pipe, carbon airbox, WoN nitrous kit with 50BHP jets and progressive controller, remapped ECU, 14"'Compomotive MO's, cut slicks, high level brake light, MGF rear hydrolastic cans (fitted on front), GTI rear hydrolastic cans, fully poly bushed, stitch welded front lower arms etc.

been twice first time we took 16 bikes and two cars bikes went in vans and cars on trailer this time drove my evo
I would recommend trailer as one of our group crashed and it was a fortune to get it home
oh don't crash as its silly prices 3000 euros for a small bit of barrier and he drove of the track
