yep i agree
buy it and drive it for a at least a year until you know what you want and have the upgrade planned.
the best years driving is the one done on the standard set up in a standard car.
When you start your upgrades its usually followed by a drought on the improvement front for 3-6 years, as you plough in more and more cash buying more and more of the "Good Stuff" and going slower than ever
its noiser
it certainly sounds the part
it goes like stink at wide open throttle
but driving it......well..... you do that at quarter to half throttle most of the time
that's the hard bit it will be cantankerous and awkward, popping, farting stalling and not working right unless the ambient temperature is 70 or there is an R in the month
yes you learn a lot but there are cheaper ways to learn
get some nice headers first and rejet what carb you have to suit.
