Default How many people have Broke something Racing their ITR?

Just curious. Not that many people talk about breaking stuff, yet quite a few people race. Are you guys just not breaking anything?

I cracked my #3 piston October of last year. It was for the better though because I don't have to worry about running "punk boost now" (6psi or lower)

broke while on track:
-front rotors (wear item)
-front brake pads (wear item)
-front and rear tires (wear items)
-several peoples egos

Kinda funny when someone walks up to you after a track session and asks you if you have "forced induction" on your car.... when you reply "it's stock".

In my last Integra (98) the motor let go while on the track, But I'm pretty sure it was the water through the AEM 2 days prior that casued the initial damage. On the ITR the screw came out of the rotor and inbedded itself inside the cap. I thought that motor was knocking also, fortunatly I was just hearing the arcing inside the cap. The tensioner for the A/C belt broke on the track also on the ITR

I forgot the trans has also been apart and rebuilt at the dealer @ 11k miles. I asked them to rebuilt instead of replace because my JDM FD was already in there.

I don't think it broke from racing but I think my alternator went last weekend. I was driving and all my lights started flashing on and off and my speedo went dead and the needle kept bouncing.
Time for a new heavy duty alternator.
