When you say that you want to race on weekends, do you mean: Go to the dragstrip? Go to Autocross events? Do Open Tracks? Get you SCCA Competition License and go racing? Or that you want to drive around looking for street racing opportunities?Why can a Honda CRV tow more weight in the UK than in the US?
The best choice of car will depend alot on which it is - and straight out, the last one is not a good option as it is just not wise and is far too dangerous for you and those around you. Further, street racing really isn't really that great of competition and you'll not find it a great forum for improving and honing driving skills.

For any of the others, you'll want to pick a car that has characteristics well suited to your aim, but that is also workable as a car for transportation. Plusses will be low cost, easily available parts and upgrades, and one that winds up in a favorable class for competition (the last will depend on what organization you're competing with).

If you are an inexperienced driver, I would suggest staying away from high powered cars. From a safety perspective you can quickly get yourself in over your head. From a driving perspective, power tends to be a way to hide bad driving. Lower powered cars force you to maintain your momentum and use more skill to work on your speed. Even in drag racing you can accomplish more in the long run by working on the skills involved.
Drag Racing: best options would probably be something along the lines of a Mustang or Camaro. Both offer RWD. Even the V6 options will have a little power and offer decent power curves. Going older offers a lot of choices at a low price. The large number produced over the years means there are lots of parts and upgrades available.

Road Racing: Be it Autocross or Open Track use, or even getting the SCCA license, the options here take alot of the same things into consideration. An older Mustang or Camaro would also be an option here, though I am not sure they would be the best bet. A Mazda Miata can be had quite inexpensively and is ideally suited for all of the above. Parts are cheap, it's RWD, and they have great balance and handling. Any of the hatchback VWs work well too, while they are FWD they have the added bonus of being more livable as a means of transportation than the Miata, and they share many of the plusses. Some of the older "less desirable" Porsches like the 924, early 944s, and some 914s fit very nicely here as well - though depending on the organization you would run with, they may wind up in unfavorable classes. These cars are well balanced, reliable, and can be quite quick with a skilled driver. Major drawback here will be that parts, while readily available, can be costly. Older BMWs (2002 or 3 Series) fit nicely here as well, but there can be cost concerns similar to the Porsches.

How can i find out if my 1984 El Camino Is a True Super Sport?
My very first car is a 2007 Dodge Caliber SXT I bought it a few months ago. It's real sporty and it's loaded with options. Its got a pretty badass factory sound system and its pretty modifiable if you look for what you want in the right places. And it's pretty fast too. I race it once in a while on the highway when I can at night And I can't complain. Although I'd rather have a BMW M3 _^Where can i find audi fuel line diagram?
Honda Civic or 2-door Accord. They are always in style and last FOREVER>.. I will always buy HOndas! (BLACK paint job, of course!)Why won't my 83 F250 stay running?
I would go with a 1987 Toyota supra they are good reliable first cars. When you are ready to make it fast for racing on weekends just put a 2jz engine swap and a few modz and you will have a rocket. I wouldn't go with a Honda civic because by the time you finish putting all that money in the engine to try and get it fast you would be able to afford a Mercedes.More Questions & Answers ...
