24 hour race?? maybe
so me and my friends want to to a 24 hour race in 2010 at thunder hill raceway in ca. . .so were thinking of a car that we could get for cheep and parts are cheep and easy to get.
. . . . .so our plan is to buy a impreza L awd, gut it put in a svx engine and a wrx 5 speed and the pump as much power as we can. . . . . . . . any one put or hear of some1 putting a svx 6 in an impreza L?. . . not planning on placing high as there will be real race cars there. . . none of the cars can be turbo . . . |

Re: 24 hour race?? maybe
actually haveing driven both, an imp with an svx motor would haul serious ass. i wouldn't use the svx because its just as fun to drive but the impreza is just going to be faster.

Re: 24 hour race?? maybe
I'd say it depends on what the track is like. A 24hr long race, assuming they're not breaking it over multiple days, would likely not be a very difficult track.

Is this a Lemons race?
If so, simple and reliable is the key to finishing.
