yes

>>28451856
This or one of the cheaper competitors (MK, Westfield). With a bike engine you’re looking at a 900lb vehicle. Components and consumables last forever and are cheap to replace. Anyone can work on one. There’s really no other option if you want to go cheap but still be fast

Evo VII-IX

>>28451833 (OP)
It’s pretty damn hard to beat a k series if you’re on a budget. Slap one in a miata, get some DIY plywood aero, and you’re off to the races.

>>28451857
>faster than anything that isn't big aero ta monsters in corners
Those are the exact cars we are talking about here, thoughbeit.

>>28451867
Wrong tbqh

Corvette C5-C7 with the runner up being newer M/RS Cars (G87 M2, G80 M3, RS3)

>for cheap
no, that's not what you are talking about, you said "for cheap"
aero is expensive, and powering through aero requires power (duh) which is also expensive

>>28451873
>aero is expensive
Only if you want it to be. You can absolutely make yourself some good aero for cheap.
>power is also expensive
Depends on how you do it. Again, a built k series will reliably get you to high hp figures on a budget.

>time attack
>cheap
do you want to compete or do you just wanna play for fun?

>>28451946
those cars use custom damn-near everything. and even when they're fully built, you need to do tons of laps to make adjustments and "develop" them over time just like manufacturers do at the nurburgring.

>>28451946
>>28451956
The trvke is that time attack is one of the easiest and cheapest racing disciplines to compete in in the USA. Especially the poorfag divisions. Most racers get their feet wet with time attack and then move on to wheel to wheel or some other discipline.

>>28451958
buying and modifying a car with high quality parts can't be cheaper than doing rallying/derby in a $1000 craigslist shitbox. or the 24 hours of lemons.

>>28451965
That’s not really “real” racing. Yeah there’s a finish line and a winner, but it’s more of a beer league thing where the goal is to hoon a shitbox, not to be fast.

>>28451967
even then, i think karting would be much cheaper than time attack.

>>28451833 (OP)
you just posted it anon

>>28451970
If you’re not gonna be in a car, might as well just do enduro or hard enduro racing.

>>28451857

OH N-

>aero is expensive
You can buy wood, fiberglass sheets, and resin at fucking Home Depot and do just about anything you'd ever need to.

>>28451946
I just wanna have fun tbqhwy, I want to run timed laps in my home built shitbox and I don't really give a shit about the failed racing drivers wannabes who dump their pensions into their build just to satisfy their ego.

>>28451873
you're such a fucking retard

why does everyone think all time attack = unlimited?
time attack has classes too you know, there's limits on mods, power, weight, tires, platform, etc.
you can be competitive in time attack on cheap without any aero (because aero isn't allowed in some classes)

anyways, time attack and time trials are gay, go wheel to wheel racing

>>28451867
LOL no

>>28451833 (OP)
Depends on the class its competing in. Anon, you wouldn't compare a 600cc and a 300cc right? You need to do the same for cars.

>>28453057
Enthusiast class is gay, street is the sweet spot
