i trailer my car because if i break something at the track, i dont want to be stranded.
funny you should say that. Me and my friends were at Sears Point prepping our H22 powered Accords for some passes in the 1/4. A brand new S2000 pulls up besides me and asks if he could use my jack. I let him use it to so what he needed to do, he goes through safety inspection, and as we line up to run, he's in front of me. He pulls up through the water and rips a viscious burnout. He stages, tree turns green, he drops the clutch..THUNK!!! That's all she wrote. But my 94 Accord w/135k miles on it made passes all day

mine happend once to me where i could nt get it home. i bracket raced and raced for sponsers for 6 years i think one time in 6 was pretty good and that was due to a fulty clip. bit i know folks that have had lots of problems with thier cars. and seemd to break all the time
I never trailed my car i would drive it Mon-Fri and race n sat and sun. so i though i was doing pretty good.
