Hello, i recently went to the track and ran 1/4 mile 8 times. However, ever since the track day, i realized that my car doesnt run as how it ran before i took it to the track. Idle seems a bit rougher, Various rattles and squeaks can be heard from the interior, Car hops when i attempt a launch, and everything doesnt feel as rigid and sturdy as how it used to before i went to the track. What exactly becomes damaged or wears down when a car is being driven very hard? How bad is it for the car when you work it to its max? I am really paranoid about the fact that my car has 9250 miles and its showing these kinds of long term wear and tear signs. Thanks.

 

dont take it to the track. thats what happens when you beat the crap out of your car. id take it to the dealer and have them check it out. should still be under warranty. wen you race your car, anything can happen. thats why i dont race mine anymore. just a fast grocery getter now.

 

engine mounts, suspension components, brakes, all that good stuff gets a workout.

 

what do i exactly tell the dealer?? I dont think they can do anything about the interior rattles and squeaks, can they?

 

dont forget the tires, clutch, and oil.

 

the tech will beat the **** out of the car then say he didnt hear a damn thing.

 

so taking it to the dealer is not a good idea right?

 

better off troubleshooting it yourself in this case.
