Which Radical and why?

I would go for the Introsport 160 before trying the Prosport or SR3.
Why so James? (says the man whose first Radical will be a 1500 SR3 Supersport which will be completed in LESS THAN 3 WEEKS NOW!)
Andrew, looks as though I may end up with a 1300 Supersport. Put me down as a potential buyer for your massively depreciated 1500 when you decide to upgrade to the 2,600cc V8 Radical
Problem with motorbikes - the hassle of recovering back home after you bin it? In a car you can always slide and spin harmlessly if you over do it - not quite so simple on a bike! And it hurts!
Having said that, I'd love to take my bike out on track, but I wouldn't drive anywhere near my limits.

pete964rs,
just a quikie, took delivery of a 12k miles old 964RS last week, its great! But just to add a twist to your original question, took the Prosport to the RMA Spa last week and after a few small problems it ran well and was great fun to drive, the SR3's do seem to be quicker, but I was on three year old slicks and haven't driven the car for a year, and I am an "old fart".
Best Regards, Tim Raven

Ah, well, the ideal would be to have both as you do, but then you'll be constantly arguing with yourself over which car to take to your next track day.
I eventually compromised on keeping the RS and tuning it. First outing in two weeks time at the 'ring and Spa. Watch this space... no doubt other Radical owners will be driving rings around me, but will I be having more or less fun than them...? And, of course, I get to drive there and back and round the circuits in the same car.
What colour did you get?
