Is there a market gap in Sportscar racing?

[GT-Driver]

Hi,

At one stage of my life nearly half a decade ago I had a strong dream of racing a sports car. Small chassis, small engine (or bike engine) light weight and tons of performance.

a dream that has faded a way for multiple reasosns. Reasons to mention some:

1- Where I live, sportscar class hardly eexist (only in Dubai and Abu Dhabi they have the Radical series, which comes at "RADICAL cost $$" for a regular club-racer who wants to race from his own pocket).

2-As I mentioned above the cost of racing a quiality sports car would in most cases hit the 30GBP for the car alone. That also includes high-end caterhams (which are even much less common in Dubai and in our region).

3-I have been searching for kit-cars but very unfortuantely most (if not ALL) the kit car makers have a very low quality with even lower customer service quality. I was ripped off by a guy who used to own GT Tuning and I have heared that others had been ripped off by the same company too.

I also know a workshop man who had to go through hell just to get his parts complete for his Ultima (can you imagine a company with that name still offers a low quality service?! or was it only him that was having a bad luck?!!).

To make story short, kit cars makers have very low quality cars, the cars look cheap and ugly. Their websites look even worse, they dont answer your phone and they dont feel to be ready to deal with overseas customers.

So I really had no choice but to rece-prep 93 Civic (EG). The car is good but it is not really what I would love, also preparing a car takes lot of time and effor than having a car that is built for racing from the scratch.

So I couldnt find a good quality race car that costs around $50,000 or little more. A decent SR3 radical does cost about $90,000. So it s either this or end up with dealing with the ultra-low quality trust-un-worthy kit car makers. I see there is a huge fat market gap. Any thoughts? Opinions?

Cheers
