Joe,

The FIAs are great cars, and Ernie had some great advice - do not start with a fire-breather. 300-350 HP is a lot for a 2200 pound car, and small blocks are very drivable. Handling is spectacular on my ERA.

These are not daily drivers, although you want to every day. When you're not behind the wheel you'll wish you were.

If you're buying a used one make sure you look at it carefully - especially who and how it was built. You can save 10-20K over the cost of a new one - but it may not be exactly what you want.

The undercar exhausts are NICE - great sound but no earplugs needed.

It is a great journey, enjoy every step.
