    So after making a quick stop at straightline today my thought that had been wandering in the back of my mind surfaced... Once my car is done, it's still gonna be shitty, without door locks, or a key ignition. I came to a few choices on what I could possibly do...

    1. part out the Probe, sell the Vigor and buy the red 95 2g.
    2. Get rid of the probe, Buy a CRX that I've wanted for a while and eventually sell the vigor.
    3. Sell both and buy the red Hatch.
    4. Keep my cars, dump a shit load of money into the Probe and make it unslow.

    I want everyones opinions. I know I just bought the probe, but I don't think it was the best idea. I have no doubt in my mind that I can part it out and make my money back.

    no race car? becuz homeowner...

      If your looking for someone else to do then its obviously not gonna be what you wanna do. Even though half around here w/ try give people or honest input they just dont care they want to keep the car they got and spend every dime they got upkeeping it.

      Best way to go is in something you dont have a lot of $$ into and something you dont need to run or drive on a daily basis. if your going to try build a car to run decent times and take to the track everyweekend while still trying drive it on a daily basis its just not gonna happen.

      IMHO you need 2 cars to satisy your needs. 1 to race/mess around w/, and 1 reliable that you can just drive.

            maybe you could sell the vigor and buy a crx for a daily driver and keep the probe as a race car.

              If you dont mind me asking, whats wrong with the vigor for a daily driver? the probe for a racer. not my first choice in cars to race, but a start nonetheless.

                      If I bought a new car, the reasoning would be to get rid of the probe. I don't want it anymore.

                        But if I bought the CRX and the swap, I would much rathwer have the 12 second hatch for cheaper.
