You could always get a dedicated track car AND a 997.2 GT3 RS which seems like the best option IMO.
I'm talking about a $205K track car But if you couldn't put yourself spending that much money on a circuit beater, which is understandable for anybody, then why not that green slick thing that cost half of what you'd pay for either the F or P car It also run laps around the two road cars. You can then use the extra $100K for a 7.1 RS :profit:

I saw a red 930 yesterday at dinner and I literally stood by it for 30min! Absolutely gorgeous irl and amazing how small it is! Makes new porsches look obese
My M3 has three pedals... I think a monkey could drive it

You do realize the Caterham is not available in LSB; which should be a dealbreaker for you, no?

My choice as well.

Scud: Flames will highlight well against white paint.
