I would be interested in a trade for a (good condtion cup car). I want a cup car by next season and I dont feel like selling first then buying second. Maybe some team owner would be interested...
Maybe I should post a trade on rennlist.com?

Leh, with your experience I would like some advice. I want to get into self funded racing. There are many factory made race cars out there.. cup car, viper comp coupe, new mustang and so on. What factory based race car would have the widest range of racing to enter? My guess is the porsche cup car. World challenge, Grand-Am cup, PCA events and most levels of club racing. Let me know if im on the wrong track.
Price range around 120k
Thanks...

definatly the cup car.... not only is it the nicest and most reliable of yoru choices.. you can race it in all types of events.. the best would be PCA club races.... thats what i started out doing and at the big races you will always have someone to race with and to make you better...... at the sebring club race this past year there were 35 996 cup cars... runnin up front were robin liddel and wolf henzler and about 15 seconds slower a lap were the guys rounding up the rear....... and in there somewhere were 31 cup cars to race with... so def a cup car and do PCA races...... lots of fun and good competition

yea sounds like your looking in the right places.... yeah you atleast want a 03... 04-05s are the best ones to get tho.... 04-05s are a couple tenths faster then 03s and around a second faster then 02s.... anything below 02 you dont want to even look at.........
"fresh" can meen alot of dif things..... if you find one PM it to me and i will take a look at it, i know alot of dif cars and might know the car... right now should be a hot time because alot of guys are gettins the 7s... but only teh guys who race in grand-am and stuff... not sure about IMSA supercup series... but if those guys get the 7s too.. there will be alot of nice 6s up for sale shortly....
i have seen motors with 100+ hours still making good HP.... but anything over 50hours you prob would want to stay away from.. but you shoulndt have to worry about that if its a 04-05 car

If you ever need a 911 motor man, he's definitely the guy to call. I've personally watched him change a broken rocker arm with the engine in the car, in the dark at a PCA event.
