Hi All
I am thinking of perhaps having a go I was going to do track days first and see how I got on I was going to use a Standard V70 T5 to start and modify it as I get better or worse or would i be better to spend more and use a V70R or S70R (About 1998 vintage)
thanks Alan

Hi Alan, are you the Alan with an automatic T-5R that used to attend the Crooked Billet meets? A standard S70/V70 T5 would be just fine to start with. PM me your landline number and I'll give you a call and have a chat about the Motorsport Challenge - it would be good to have another competitor in a Volvo!

Iain
