from what i have seen its not only the looks that suffer !
i had to borrow cars occasionally, and was rather surprised at the standart these good looking lower midfield cars where in !
maybe i am a bit picky, but the first thing a racecar should do is not
fall apart, secondly brake powerful and in a straight line without rattling
corners off...
then it should handle like a dream, and if you got some power that does not let you down on straights, thats a bonus.
the final iceing on the cake is a good, clean look.
i found most cars to be build by reversed standarts...
maybe the attitude has changed too ?
while people fascinated by the technical demands of a racecar prepared wunderful machines in the past, needing to take them to track on weekends,
you now have people with the wish to race - having to cope with the burden
of carrying a racecar along the way !
as budget for someone to prepare it isn't there, the build whatever the parts
in the bin allow for...
we normally spend the whole weekend turning the lookers into racers !
not long and i was offered cars to borrow... - just so we could turn them
into something worthwhile racing !
