I don't have much money to afford a new car just for track use and so I sometimes use my daily at the track however my friends have been telling me I'm playing with Fire if I crash into the wall get in an accident something breaks etc I will be SOL
Do you use your daily as a track car?

Yes, it's bad. Shits gonna break down and you'll have no ride.
>>
Yes it's dumb.
>>
nobody here goes to the track

>>17720057
Insurance won't cover you and crashes are frequent. Wear and tear is greatly magnified. Yes, it's a bad idea.

You shouldn't even run the same viscocity oil between track and daily use; your normally-recommended oil will be too thin at track temperatures, and brake pads for track usage are too dusty, noisy, and short-lived for good street use.

I do, bitch.

Hopefully you have money aside to pay to fix your transmission and shit like that

It's what I do. Definitely have money set aside for a major repair. But any decent car can handle the abuse.

i daily drive my track day and autocross car. not many problems after a year and a half of doing so. If you plan on doing actual competition, like door to door racing, then yeah you're gonna get your shit fucked.

No just a weekend warrior atm and I just bring it to amateur drag and drift events
>>
>>17720636
Drag racing is nothing. It's fun cheap and easy. If your car has a weak diff or drive line issues you may stress it out if you put slicks on. Drift might not be a good idea because crashing. I'd rather autocross than drift.
>>
>>17720680
Well I do auto cross and drifting but I never exceed my limits when I'm driving my car if I even think for a second my car is gonna spin out crash etc I slow down and quit the course

Buy a shitbike as a backup vehicle.
Better yet buy a shitbike as your trackmachine.
