Build the E 30 over time. I've seen lots of them with m3 engines and they go like stink. Lots of parts. Strip it to the studs, good seat, harness and bar.
'round here the "Pro3" class of 3 series BMW racing is very popular - cheap racing and VERY competitive. Also know of some that are track only DE cars - just for fun. Good tires, seat, harness and go wring it's neck.
Absolute best bang for the buck racing is a Miata. I just saw one that a fellow bought recently for $13k. Complete car very well set up, ready to race.
944 is a good track car, but will be much more costly to run than the Bimmer or Miata.
The 914 as a built car is a non starter. You'll never be in the hunt without spending lots and lots...
