Just saw the Goblin on Goonzquad, and found this forum as a result.
I'm an aircraft mechanic, and I'm not far from retirement, and I've been planning to build and race vintage cars as a hobby.
My last race experience was go karts in high school, so when I saw the Goblin, I realized there might be a more affordable way to learn how to race cars then risking vintage tin. It seems to me, a base model Goblin with the automatic tranny would make a decent training car for someone serious about learning to drive a car to its limits.
Most cars I've seen/read about have been SC/TC cars with manuals, so I am interested in hearing more about how the base model car performs.
Thanks!
