The potential long term plan is to move all the turbo parts over to the caged chassis in a few years. If the CR tranny or engine go boom, it'd be a no-brainer.
I feel like it would take years and years and years of abuse for a stock CR motor or trans to crap out. (knock on wood).
I believe that I may be the only data point. 100% success rate!

If you didn't club race the CR, what would you do with it?

Whatever leads you to racing wheel to wheel at COTA, that is what you should do.

Wife is talking about trading in the CR on a 911.

Supposedly STU is pretty popular down here, right? The S2000 fits good in STU.

Trade the Q7 and the CR for a Cayenne 911 combo. Sounds awesome to me.

Been thinking about it and running the numbers.
I think I'd rather keep the CR and cage it for T3 / H2 and pick up a Cayman S for a daily driver rather than trade the Honda in on a 911.

The clincher was talking with LJ from Full Blown who has been great working on our turbo (SSM) S2000. One of the rear camber adjusters on that car (an '02) has been developing play and loosening up. We were talking about solutions and opted to pick up a used AP2 rear subframe (with the better geometry). Cost of the rear subframe? $250.

It's really quite an affordable chassis to work on and replace parts. Not Spec Miata-cheap, but a pretty good mid-range race car. Where else am I going to get a well-maintained sub 20k mile car with so many spares available? I already have all the go-fast parts. I just need to get a FlashPro, containment seat and harness along with the cage and I'm pretty much set.

Thanks guys, for letting me talk it out.

Start a Spec S2000 series! Your CR can be the first entry.
