    There was a post on a forum last year about a possible race series for FIAT seicento/cinquecento sporting models,I got on to the people involved about it and got the information required about it,however haven't heard anything since.I honestly think that the Toyota Aygo is a more suitable model for such a series,parts for them are fairly cheap and panels etc are very easy to fit being held on with just a couple of bolts.They were used for the football game on top gear and Ben Collins(Stig) said they were great fun to drive and held up well to abuse.I wonder if I got a model and brought it to mondello for a days testing and found it to be suitable would there be much interest in such a series.Your comments would be much appreciated. I think it would be a great entry level motorsport in the present climate.

    Look up the Cento Challenge. Don't think you're going to find any cheaper motorsport at the moment. They have a deal worked out with Murray Motorsport as well for all the stuff needed to convert road going cinquento to race prepped (seat, harness, cage, etc)
