Default Who here is a track junkie?

I am a huge track junkie which is probably the main, if not the only reason I drive an S2000 .

I love the experience and I love the feeling of pushing my car as hard and as far as she will go. The thing I love most about the track, are the different types of enthusiasts that I meet while there.

I haven't come across a whole lot of IS-F's which is suprising to me considering how well it performs & handles.

These are three awesome track ready USE20's that I came across online.







Who here tracks at all? How many of you track junkies take your IS-F to the track?

I would consider myself 1...

But don't have IS_F yet, now that they announced limited slip, might wait for 2010

Still up in the air... On full on e36 race car s54 transplant or e46 original and go from there. or heavy isf, but still used for DD... not sure yet. or vette

not a race car lol!

Those aren't USE20's... They're GSE21's that the now-defunct Team Lexus built back in 2005-6.

As I've read in other post, I don't think he post pictures of his car.
