Do what I did.  Scavenge your daily driver and build a car around the
drivetrain...

That used to be my daily driven turbo'd Miata. She saw her first track
outing this weekend...  Oh Boy...

Seriously, I'd love to see a 1.8T Quattro based track car similar to mine.
I think about 1600lbs, 300HP and AWD would be quite a treat....

So I've got work up to my yinyang and I'm thinking about what kind
of car I would build up as an autocross/track car.

Requirements - cheap, familiar, fun, reliable, cheap.

Does not have to be particularly competitive...

Should be a car that I would/could drive on the street without
being illegal or wincing...reality is that autocross/track time
will be relatively minimal for a while...eventually I'd like to
spend more time with it.

First thought is an early B5 S4.

Other initial thought is a B5 A4...

I know some will suggest Miatas, Boxsters, etc, but I want to stay
in the Audi fold for this fun car. Not sure why, but I do... :)
