Default Car advise

I have a 99 TA that I was building into a race car and a DD . Lol I also have a 2014 1LE for a DD . Motor is out of the ta and have been fully built and supercharged. I have been thinking of parting it out and using the money for the 1LE . And buy something a little more practical. Or I trade in the Camaro in on something . What would u all do

Well, what're you wanting from a car and what is it you feel that you're missing now that makes you want to sell one or both? There's a million right answers depending on what you're wanting/needing. It's hard to say what you should do when you're being really vague.

I have no idea why some folks think it's a good/fun idea to combined purposes like this (race car + daily driver.) This is a total hassle that comes with several compromises in either direction. I would never want that again. Better to stick with two different cars for these two different purposes, like you currently have. Just my opinion.

Ok , let me clarify this . Transamerica is my race car , but still street legal. Would be uncomfortable as a DD but could be done if u had to for a week or so .

If it was me I would keep the Trans Am and just enjoy it whenever I feel like it and sport the 1LE when im sick of the race car characteristics. Whats funny is my 1LE I only drive when I get annoyed with the personalities of my 4th gens. The 1LE is my reliable car that I just dont mess with other then keeping her clean.
