tbh if you want a track car and can afford another car aswell then keep it as a track car. or if not split/sell and buy a better car than youd get if you kept it (if that makes sense lol)

edit: id personally go track car

the corsa will be kept at either my mates house or my mum and dads

i would rather spend my time prepping it for track than putting it to standard

but with the bits i'd want it may become expensive

Also many people have tried & tested corsas on track.....spending alot of money along the way - comming to the conclusion their not idea!

Sell up & buy a 205 1.9 GTi for 500 then spend £1k on 2nd hand parts, bigger brakes, better suspension, cage, bucket seat etc then rally the death out of it & have much fun - better idea all round!

Just because you already have a shell at your disposal doesnt make it the best idea!
