Street cars by and large make terrible race cars, I don't mean those that
look like street cars which are really tube frame race cars with stock
looking panels hanging on them. If you really want to race, buy a Formula
Ford, spec race, Atlantic, Radical, S2000 or build a proper GT car, it will
always be faster, safer and cheaper.  Panteras are cool for track days with
mods, but unless you ruin the car with full cages, came, fire system, 180s,
etc that make it impractical for street use, it will never deliver the same
performance for the same money spent on a proper race car.  Michael Shortt
