You are right on about this. My whole suspension redo-interior restoration has made me come to terms that there are good street cars and good track cars, but trying to make a car that does both well is difficult at best. A good street suspension will be too soft on the track and a good track suspension will be too harsh on the street. So I decided to make my Carrera a street car. Current thinking is to get some DE experience, and in a few years start looking for a no-sunroof SC coupe of something like that to turn into a gutted, no interior, no stereo track beast. Maybe I'll get a 944 - they're cheap and according to Dave, a lot of fun to work on .
