Question of the Day: Do You Track Your Cars? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

ZilviaBot · 01-05-2008, 11:50 PM

Iâ€™ve never taken part in a track day since every vehicle I own is a four-wheel-drive of one type or another, but Iâ€™m going to be taking part in some LeMons racing later this year to test those waters. I do play with my vehicles in legal off-road parks to get my kicks and test their capabilities. Iâ€™m sure the WINDING ROAD readership trends a little more towards vehicles that would benefit from a track day or two to allow the driver to legally push the car to its full performance capabilities.
Do you take part in track days or autocross events? Let us know how often you do in comments.

Not really sure what is going on in that post. But, Off road driving and Lemans racing is WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY different.

I do 5-6 auto-x a year, 5-6 drag days, and I try to hit the road course once a year(if the budget alows)

LOL wtf zilvia bot???!

Seriously it's the main reason you buy a 240sx, they're a pretty stupid car otherwise.
