Default What do you drive at the track: Daily driver? Pure track car?

I'd like to see how many people here track their cars & drive them daily as well.

How about another category - "I have a racing car"?

(Dude - I actually DO have a racing car! Whee!)

I found it was really cheaper (and a hell of a lot easier) to have 2 cars.

Me too. I am torn between the thrill of driving fast and the agony of destroying my primary mode of transportation.

Lol, for a while I had a track car for roadrace, but no daily driver(didn't pass smog, and was too cheap to bribe the smog guy), I just took the bus or bycycle instead. Saved a lot of money from having to pay insurance and gas.
