Affordable racing. Is it worth it? Which of these affordable racers are the most fun? A new class of “B-spec” racecars is poised to make entry-level racing affordable for everyone. We’ll test drive the Mazda2, Kia Rio, Mini Cooper, at Honda Fit at one of the top tracks in the country: Laguna Seca to discover which is the most fun to drive and makes it quickest to the winner’s circle.

I hope this picks up with Yaris, Sonic, Fiesta etc coming on boad and I also like to see these things street legal, dunno what it needs but ‘d put up the entry and exit any day. Fab some quick release seats and boom you got a 4 seater, not comfy but hey it’s a race car.
those cars suck. buy a used car so its cheaper for a better car..
Thanks Sean, I’m well aware it’s only an R/C, I have attempted to get into R/C Heli’s, but it’s a challenge. I hope my quadracopter skills go better.
I hope you know the helicopter pilot is sitting on the ground the entire time. He is flying a RC Heli. 1:09 look in the air
B-spec, like on gt5 where a computer drives for you.
What about the Yaris hatch?????
Ford! where is my Fiesta race car?

kia hepsinin içinden geçer
Want the Kia.
I would say the Fit looks like the best all around. The phone booth comments seem a little childish and besides the point. The Kia needed a 17HP advantage only to come out less than a second ahead of the pack. Dark horse? Inefficient horse. LOL Great video though
I’m averaging 45mpg from my 2013 automatic Rio LX 5 door. It’s good to know that it’s also got the potential to make it around a track quickly – if I wanted to go that route.
It would be cool to know what kind of aero mods were available/advised in order to improve my mpgs even more.

How expensive would it be to maintain a car like this? Do you need a new set a tires/engine rebuild/etc etc after every race like most racecars do?
The Kia Rio 2012 HB is a great Car, i buy one of this and its amazing how react in streets, and have good power even whit the 1400 cc
For 30k I would buy a bunch of shitheaps, jump them, and smash them into things.
that kia is unbelievably good looking… I wanna buy one and tune it up..

Thanks for the feedback. We’ll see what we can do!
for 30K I would rather have a Fit race-tuned at J’s Racing AND it would produce 320HP with a K20A engine
First thing I heard was “affordable entry level race car” Then I saw some not so “affordable entry level race car” prices. Ouch. You can buy a fully preped Spec Miata, trailer, and truck to haul all the stuff for less if you find the right deals. I think you guys should rename it to “affordable PRO entry level race car”, cause only the pros race teams are gonna find 25,000 for JUST the car afforadable. Plus I believe that is the plan for these cars anway though. Afforable racing my butt lol.
No Chevy Sonic?! :’(
