    The Westfield is a Lotus 7 replica and Catheram builds the Lotus 7 under lincense from Lotus, or at least they did.

    And in regards to Catheram I think this one or this one are quite fast.
    Lack of charisma can be fatal.

    Yes you are!

    The Westfield is similar to a Caterham, but definitely not the same. The Caterham CSR260 Superlight (ie the top of the range one) is every bit a match for those cars you posted in the poll. Also there are the cheaper track options like the R400 Superlight which aren't quite as potent but every bit as track-focused and entertaining. No comparison of track day cars should ever be complete without a Caterham of some description in there.

    While the Radical would be a blast at any/every track I could find, it would be the kind of car that I would bring to the track on a trailer. The Noble, however, is the kind of car that I could drive to the track in relative comfort and then destroy just about any car out there. Therefore, the car that I would choose would be the Noble because of its combination of everyday tractability and track day prowess.

    The top of the line Radical please. It's a trackday car. Who cares about roof, you're gonna have a helmet on.
