hey everyone i am a 17 year old junior in high school. at my school every senior has to do a senior project to graduate which you basically start at the end of your junior year and work all your senior year on it. it is a very large project and is supposed to be something that really interests you. i wanted to try to build a beginner track car for a beginner time attack, race, autocross, etc. Something like that. My dad owns a car maintenance shop so one of the guys there could help me with the build and be my "mentor" during the project but i was wondering the type of budget that a "low end" or "beginner" track car would cost? i hope its not too much because i would love to do it but i can only get a little financial support from my dad and i was wondering what you guys thought would be an estimate overall cost. And also what type of track cars do you think are great beginner cars? Thanks alot for all your help
