Guys.........I am new to SCCA, but not new to racing. I'm a South Carolinian with dirt track, asphalt track, drag racing, go kart racing background (all total about 30 years) Now that I am older, but still not deceased, I would like try something else. I have this 93 Corolla with a very real 310,000 miles on it and 5 speed gearbox. Could this be a good platform to start from, or should I look elsewhere ?

I am a welder / fabricator / chassis builder, with a dash of machinist thrown in, so I am capable, but do not really want to travel down the wrong paths to far in a new venue. At 54 years old, my reflexes aren't that of a 20 year old, but my skillsets are still intact. Any comments?????

I had thought of the V8 in my new Tundra, but the wife really frowned on that idea!
