I drive mine mainly on weekends, or until I notice the next strange sound or vibration coming from it.
Then it sits torn apart for the next several days as I throw money at the problem.
I know that feeling. Mine has actually made imprints in the concrete. Currently the frt. end is jacked up waiting on money for those tubular control arms(probably a few weeks away). I feel sorry for it sometimes but then it refuses to cooperate with something I'm trying to fix and I have to slap it around a little (the car, that is).
Maybe you can edit the "only" off the Drag race only and Autocross only. Cuz I like to go to shows, drive on weekends, sometimes to work... and of course Autocross whenever I get the chance!!
Hard to believe nobody else tries autocrossing... .you don't know what you're missing!!
it sits in the garage and appreciates in value, although.....
demolition derby on the weekend with the 69 convertible.... hitting the ramp at 100 mph, jumping a dozen school buses and slamming into the ground at the other end.
Pretty much a car that's being setup for drag racing, but street legal. I daily drove it for 4 months but it costed me 35 bux in gas each day to drive about 30 miles
I never really specified how much money I throw towards the problems (actually, how much my wife allows me to throw).
Based on the state of my car, the money I can throw your way won't solve too many problems
3 autocrossers in here. i'd love to make my car more competitive, but the changes necessary would make it unsuitable for street use (750lb springs, probably 3-link setup in the rear). ah well, guess it's fun regardless.
although i have to admit... my favorite cars i've autocrossed are chevy's... of course the one i'm driving now has 500 HP, weighs 2750lbs, and is on 14" wide slicks so i guess that helps a little.
