Want to buy a drive in Asia
Discussion
Am in HK, the lack of track driving opportunities is driving me stir crazy. I can pay up to $1,000 per day to rent/share a car anywhere within a four hour flight of here. Happy to have an agreement in writing before getting on track.
Cars, single seaters, even fast go-karts. Track days or racing. I have a 996 here but hit a dead end trying to get it on track in Zhuhai/Guangzhou.
I have quite a lot of track driving experience in Europe and will accept Big Boy Rules; if I bent it I pay for it. PM me or post here and I'll get back to you.

There are few threads on this, all the people I know in HK are pulling out of the Chinese series, due to instability in the rules, the best series in my opinion is the Asia Classic Car Challenge, (ACCC) run at Sepang by the HK Classic Car Club, there are several people in HK currently building cars for next year.
If you want to race at Zuhai, look at Black Art Racing, they are a good organization running Formula Renaults (if I'm up to date).
I have a Locost I rent out for ACCC, 6000 Rm a day plus fuel, tyres and entry fees, (say 500 fuel, 2000, for tyres and 3800 entry), but that is around 2500US$ for two days. (That's with full team support), single driver. No problem if you want to geta mate and split.
A few people have rented the car and then gone on to buy/build a car to enter the series, (the car is not super fast 1600 4age, LSD, 5 s[eed, Disks etc but it finishes.
I also know for an Atom for sale in Zuahai, but I'm not sure what it is eligible for.
The problem in Asia is that the rich Chinese with F458, and GT3's do not like being beat by Radiacals, Atoms etc, so they are very largly banned.
The other thing to look at is the Caterham Challenge at Sepang, this is an official Caterham series, arrive and drive, I think it is around 40,000 US$ a year and you get to keep a road sport spec car at the end of the series, (you need to check if the car can stay in the country).
Another option is MSF at Sepang, this is nearest to a UK style club series, I've looked at this but I think the driving is a bit iffy, as they allow, Local MAA licenses, ACC uses AAM licenses which are the FIA body. They run a Proton Saga series, and that is a cheap way to build a race car.
Building a car is a series option and can be economical, if you pick the right car you can build to the 'blue book' and get a car to take home, if you pick the right chassis.
Any way if you want PM me and I'll give you contact numbers for all the series mentioned, but I don't want to put them up here. U tube has videos of all these series.

) for trackdays.You should be able to get out in a Formula Renault at Zhuhai with Champ Motorsport or one of the other teams there. Also I have another contact based in the Philippines who may be able to get you some track time at Batangas there. Drop me an email and I can send you some details.

Buri Ram could be an option, thank you. At this stage I'll take anything.
Can fly Air Asia to Don Muang then get a connecting flight to Buriram. Note - have to do the international into Don Muang, which i think is only air asia. The domestic flights only go from Don Muang to Buriram, Air Asia and Nok Air
