it is true that a TRAD is a pretty simple/cheap car to take to the track,
I never felt I had to pay high prices for tracking it,

brakepads 160euro, rear tyres 300euro for both, one throttle-cable and that was all I had to spend "extra" becaus of the track-use,
beside the "more often than needed" oil-change and dealer-check, (certainly the mountainbikes, those are as costly as a "normaly only on sunday driver trad ;))
but all my week-end toys get that treatment

so would I enjoy the Mcl more:
can't take it on track, except the VIP-trackday if it still will be organised
but for sure: after this year I need to bring the automobile-costs down, so 1 week-end car
(belgian tax/insurance are €-suckers)
