    Gotta be the Caterham. It's a real man's sportscar.

    The CSR 260 should take this home..

    This is about the Track Day King, and nothing gives you more feeling of speed than next to no windscreen and 260 hp in a seven chassis...

    Why? The Enzo and the Zonda are "full body" supercars with enclosed interiors. While the Atom isn't even street legal in most countries, so it can only be used as a track day car. I voted for the Caterham in the poll, but would chose the Atom hands down.

    Isn't the Lotus Sport Exige a racing car?

    Of course the CSR could set a better lap, but for me I'll take the GT3. It would be a completely different story if it was a custom Caterham with a rotary.

    Thanks for the info.

    I personally would have the 911 GT3 RS.

    Yes, which makes it even more qualified for track days. However, I very much doubt it's anywhere near as fun as a Caterham, even if it is faster.
