So I know this thread has been made before but mostly of your favorite track car. Now post a picture or two of YOUR car at the track and what you do with it!

I'll get things going...

Car is now FOR SALE, but I used it for track days, HPDE's, and was going to be my road race car but I had a last minute change of plans...

And a small teaser of what my new Time Attack car is...:ninja:

Nothing serious, just H&R's, sway bars, bushings, and strut bars, and full cage if that counts.

So you're saying your M3 is built for the strip? How?

Most of your arn't getting a track car is a purpose built vehicle that is typically not street legal.

True, but in the OP he just said post a picture of your car on the track. A little contradictory to the title, but I'm going to go with the description.

Definitely not scurd to take it out to the track. Just did a LS/V swap that I want to test out on the track before I go to Afghanistan, but I may not be able to. I don't have those big ass Accord seat in there anymore though, but later I would like to put some kind of racing seats in there. Maybe a roll cage but not sure how soon. I'm going to try to get my friend to take some recent pics of the car for me.
