If you want to go to something like SCCA, I'd consider a Solstice GXP for the cost to performance ratio. They need some set up (which is inexpensive) but they have a really good SCCA record. Corvette's and Solstice GXP's are both class A cars though (I think) so you'd be thrown in with the big boys right away, and some of those guys are really really good.

I'd look for a class C or D car that's been pre-set up for half your budget for a year or 2 then upgrade when you're used to the format. Personally I only autocross though so I'm just going through what I hear at the events.

The SCCA events won't require the commitment Rogue Leader is talking about.
Yep, I see your point. And it's what I'd prefer to do in the first place. What exactly is a class c or d car?

And if it makes any difference in the long run, I'd prefer to get into rally racing then just running around a track for endless hours
