I believe he is pointing out the fact that he owns an RA,
I would say an RA would probably be my choice, although I must confess I like the Idea of the Supra but know little about them.

A supra is just too big and heavy for track its a GT really, you want something lightweight and nimble. Takes some braking effort to stop a car from 130mph continually. The lighter the load the easier the braking. The supra may be okay for a couple of laps then my guess it would start to have braking problems. The RA is the choice due to the close ratio box ie you dont need the top speed.

Must say if I was after a pure track car I would be looking for a cater/field type car or maybe an early elise. The consumable bits on the westfields are a lot cheaper and would make sense over a season, being a kit car you should be able to do 99% of the work yourself as well.

Chris,

I am assuming that Katana is reffering to the fact that he has a RA. In his profile on the left hand side (left to his post) it states this. So Katana is suggesting the RA would be best.

I am probaly wrong though
