Default better track chasis

I was thinking about starting a project car. I was thinking about making a track only civic. Is an EG or EK chasis better than one another for track purposes. I know that an EG is lighter, but what else?

eg is lighter, that is alot to consider with a track car. Stiffness is also very important. You should look at what class you want to run, some classes they will weight your car so it would be worthless to use a super light eg.

don't know if it is stiffer, but it probably is. Like take it this way, mazda has alot of success with the protege not because it is really light but because it is stiff and they never have weight added to the vehicle. I would go to the tech forums for this, like the autox forum they would help alot more.
