You don't have to thrash your car around the track to have fun though? I'm not planning on thrashing mine! Not much more than I would on the street anyway!

That's exactly why I don't see the point paying X amount of dollars to do something not overly dissimilar to what I'd do on the street (the occasional spirited run every now and then).

In an ideal world, I'd have a separate track toy that could be thrashed to all buggery on the track :mrgreen:

I'll only be punishing my tires not my gear box or engine on the track day. My car can't take that abuse for long.

I was gonna say, 4.5hrs is too long :lol: I'd be keen if it was almost a mini-cruise!

Yet paying an enormously larger amount of money for a track car makes perfect sense? :roll:

And the diffence is, it is legal to do it on the track, it is illegal to do it on the street? The spending fine alone would be double if not triple the cost of a track day

We obviously have two opposite philosophies for this...look, I totally understand why you'd have fun taking your car out on the track, it's just not for me with my current car.

Eventually, once I've got a well-paying job, have got my financial priorities straight (i.e. house, kids, missus etc), whatever is left I can dedicate to a toy because life is too short :wink:

I respect your position, but at the end of the day, I disagree.

And you can easily drive spiritedly on the street without speeding! I'm totally against hooning around like an idiot doing 2 or 3 times the speed limit etc. No point needlessly endangering the lives of others.
