As the title says, list your track experience, and also the state of the car before you went (stock, rusted to shit, sr, ka-t, rb…etc).
I’m also interested in knowing if anyone has taken a stock 240 with an automatic to the track. How was it? lol I might do that this year.
One more thing, what did you notice most about your car that you felt needed an upgrade and just wasn’t to your liking? (e.g. body roll, understeer, slow acceleration, brake fade, etc…)
Hopefully this thread will be helpful to those who are contemplating whether to track their baby, or deciding what to mod next. Pics are always welcome

oh yeah and i cracked my windshield when i launched on the micky’s
Ive never broken at the track before but i did use my car in a drift event at TMP when it was automatic ! aha…after about 2 laps the tranny was way to hot…i gave it gas the RPM went up but the car barely accelerated. so no more then 2 laps of hard driving on an auto tranny…
another time was…went a bit to long on the track and my rad fluid was boiling out over the over flow and the plastic container felt like a grosrie bag… this was on the KA…witch i still drove home and never even flinched in power when it was hot…stock rad ect…
and blew a tire mid drift kinda freaked me out first time…
I’ve been to Cayuga drag once and Dunnville once. Also done a few autocross events. My rad neck that connects to the upper rad hose snapped at Dunnville.
