I guess a brief explanation couldn't hurt. Since 2007 I had been autocrossing with a 1973 Porsche 914-6 conversion that was a blast to drive, and prepared me well for the Lotus, being mid-engine rwd. It was 1850 pounds, had a 2.7 litre motor that ran best on 110 octane, and was somewhere between 200-240 hp. Before that car I had never autocrossed, only track (Laguna Seca) and drag racing (Montgomery Alabama, don't remember the name of the track there). But autocrossing has proved to be quite addictive, and the first day after I bought it, I drove the Lotus in an autocross. With the Porsche I had a dedicated set of slicks for racing and another set for day to day driving. It seems much more logical (that sounds silly, who am I, Spock?!?) to have two sets of tires than to try to buy one set for both purposes. But like many of you (I suppose), I bought this car on the cheap and don't have a lot of disposable cash. Any suggestions as to the most inexpensive route to take and still be able to fulfill my autocross/track day fix would be greatly appreciated!:bow:
