As others have said, you really need to define "race ready" by the type of racing you want to do and the class in which you want to run. I autocross in SCCA's CAM-S class like Nokones in a 96. My car is also set up to run lap after lap on a road course without overheating anything (coolant, oil, brakes). But it would probably make a terrible bracket racer at a drag strip due to it's stock gearing and its clutch. I'd go visit some autocrosses, HPDE/TT events at road courses, and drag strips and start figuring out where your interests are. Then you can start really looking at options.

Nice and Sweet. Interesting that a dry sump is not being used or at least I didn't see it in the pictures.
