indy vs indy r
How much better is the r im going up to mk at the end of the month and am interested to know peoples opinion on the two that have owned or driven
both. £700 buys a fair bit of kit ie engine.Would i be able to tell the difference or are we talking very small grip improvements.I will just be using
the car for sunday blasts and some track days to start off with but i havent ruled out racing in the future .Do the rs and normal indys compete
together? could i end up regretting not buying the r???

I bought the "R", have yet to get it on the road. But in my opinion, if a manufacturer finds it could improve on an old design and puts
out a new design, why would you buy the old design? Assuming the new design is better
Again, I cannot say it is, or is not. But I made the assumption that like all other builders they will concentrate on improving the new design over
improving the old.

I would go for the R, 700 quid is nothing really compared to the full build cost, and don't forget it will be worth more if/when you sell it.
I think you would regret it at some point if you didn't. Thats the theory i went with anyway.

I agree if the r is better then it is worth it just wondered if there was anyone who has driven both. Im sure i will find out when i go up there still
got to decide on the engine yet decisions decisions.
