    probably a crx, b20 build or h22.
    in any car it takes money to maintain no matter how u are racing it ive seen cars with brand new $20k engines blow on first runs its sucks unless u have the time and money its a bad idea cause my bro is getting out of it he spend over $100,000 last year just on his car for weekend racing during season

    i mean it all depends on certain factors, yes.

    you wouldnt do it at all?

    what about bracket racing? just build a pretty quick, reliable car but not be all out in the competition yet. start small....

    lol u always start small cause just when u think u have a quick car there is always quicker
    but yeah i mean my buddy has a SE-R with a VE swap and just n/a is running almost 12's and he dont have much in it just the engine.
    find cars like crx's,SE-R etc. and find a good palce to get parts thorugh and stick with that one place so you can build cred and sponsor lol
