I would vote for Ben as that car is stunning however BecauseRaceCar lends itself more to be a daily with race mods just 'becauseracecar'. Samass gets my vote.

Funny one this, ben and chris are probably tying for closest thing to an actual race car, but they're not doing it for style reasons, which in my eyes is what things like this are all about. Likewise, samass isnt doing it "becauseracecar", hes doing it because hes mental, and i'm not sure why puglove's even entered. Which leaves td_dan, who has fitted a cage and towstrap just for the look, which is about as "becauseracecar" as you can get lol.

I was torn between the rallyes and if Chris's was a bianca it would of been an easy decision but as gorgeous as Ben's is IMO nearly 300bhp and nearly 10,000rpm from an un boosted XU is phenominal and so Chris wins it for me.

Gotta be bens bianca rallye for me. So much work has been put into it not only to transform it into a track day weapon but transforming it from a fairly tatty scratched car into one of the cleanest biancas around.
Another tick in the book for me is that it gets driven, track, snow, road, wedding etc. Definitely gets my vote

Was trolling as much as anything lol. Chris' is blatantly the most racecar, just for that engine.
