Well it started getting cold so I decided to take out my track friendly water and put in a 50/50 antifreeze mix. Drove fine that night. Next day, went to work, came home and went to the car wash. At the car wash I happen to pop the hood to clean a little and I notice fluid dripping under the timing cover So I drive home (2 miles away) and park in the garage. As I pull in I notice a small puddle, so it had leaked before. Pop the hood and it's really leaking now.

Sooo, I guess my water pump didn't like the antifreeze so now I have to replace that and the timing belt since it got it all wet All this a day before I was to go to the track one last time and I have to wait till next week to get a impact (bad luck with breaker bars)

Anyway has this ever happened to anyone else???

It's more likely that your water pump didn't like the straight water you were running before. Water doesn't do much to lubricate the seal.
