Ive been looking at getting a Formula First or Formula 500/600 for the track.

You can buy one with spares for under $10k. Cheap to run and fix and they are formula cars. Woo Hoo

These cars are fairly cheap which surprises me. The truck and trailer is what costs. But the fun factor is oh so sweet.

Some of the ones I have found include a trailer
One was an enclosed trailer with workbench, etc
