604 vs 602

[9mdad]

Im new here so im sure its been asked even with the weight break is it worth buying the 602 .We will have a beginner driver in the car next spring just trying to get everything in place and with no experiance in a car would the 602 be the way to start. Thanks

welcome 9mdad

in your situation it might just be benificial to purchase a 602

folks will come on after me I am sure and say don't waste your money on the 602 but to begin the learning curve it might be a good way to go.

the 602--604 power difference is significant and the weight breaks (IMO) do not offer enough compensation however they are close enough to compete on the same race track.

something else to keep in mind -----new drivers tend to slow down too much---the 602 will pick back up from a low RPM better than a 604 ----the dual plain intake manifold is the main reason for that

also the $2000 difference in price can go towards safety equipment or tires etc. etc. etc.

there is a market for used 602's so if you take care of it you will be able to recoup at least half of your investment back if not more

That is some sound advice, from a credible source. There will be other opinions, but you can't go wrong with what he said.
