Hmm let me try my hand at this:

City : Maini Reva powered by Swift VDi engine

Family: Stock Accent or Verna CRDi

Drag: Sipani Dolphin powered by G13BB Esteem engine, homemade laughing gas system and a close-ratio gearbox.

Trackday: Special powered by Jetta VR6 engine? Heh Heh.

1) city commuting - Swift with 19 JTD engine
2) family car - Ford S Max or Innova with Embera Diesel engine
3) one for the drag strip and the occassional traffic signal sprint - Subaru Impreza with LP640 engine

Though I am fully satisfied with the robustness, reliability, offroad-ability and torque of my new 2.5 XD3P engine, how I wish there was a way to make the MHawk engine work in my Classic. 5 speed box + 4x4 to boot! What a road monster she'd be.
