Talk me out of a GTM.

I want a rear mid-engine car. I've owned Corvettes, Mustangs, and old Ferrari's, so I don't care where the donor car comes from.

Todd,

Dino's Corvette Salvage is where I purchased a lot of stuff for my old Corvette.
They will assist you if you can't find the goodies you need.

I'm lucky because they are only about 20 miles from my home.
Hope this helps.

You shouldn't rule out the 818. Its mid engine and buy far much easier to build.
Granted it's not a "super car", but it is cheaper to build and wont be overwhelming like a GTM can get.

You know... Didn't think of the 818. That might be a better, 'more logical' choice. Mid-engine, easier to build, cheaper.

818 - Humm wonder if you can do a LS swap

Just kidding, going back to the popcorn stand.

I was actually Watching on Sunday.

Is it just about speed and winning for me it is also about the look of the car that makes a super or car or not, as I love BMW, but the BMW looks like sedan relative to most of the others.

Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche, Ford GT, and new corvette all have mid engine, sell for 100s of thousand of dollars and over a million on some cases and none will win the Rolex race but people still love them, so wining is not every thing.

Aston Martin Vulcan is one of very few that have so call Front Mid engine that still looks like a supper car, engine is almost inside the car.

Just my view!

Thanks,

Don't know if you are aware, but the current version of the F9 has the engine so far back you could almost fit another V8 between the engine and the radiator. I would say the front of the engine is around a foot back from the front axle centerline. Word is that the weight distribution is just about 50/50.
