I am considering retiring my street car (a lightly modified 2012 Boss 302) from track and time attack duty and jumping in with a race car to test and tune for at least a season before going W2W. My budget likely would only allow for a well prepped New Edge or SN95 vs a mild/incomplete S197 build. S550 is out of the question. I personally have plenty of experience with S197's including V6's, V8's, and GT500 or SC cars but zero experience (on track) driving SN95's. That said, I have seen a lot of posts on here about how much better a platform that S197 is so I am very tempted to go with a mild S197 build that can grow with me if budget allows upgrades in the future vs getting something that may be better on day 1 but without much room to grow. Has anyone been in a similar situation? If so, what did you do and are you happy with your decision? Can anyone quantify in performance (lap times) and consumables the difference between running both (same track and same driver)?
