one thing i am happy to do is retire my rx7 from street use. Like that S13 video posted, it was a pain to go anywhere in that car. It was too low, too stiff, and impractical. Now that im getting a BRZ, I can keep the Rx7 as a dedicated track toy, while still have fun with a sporty car on the street. And no way in hell am i going to mod my current daily 04 Subaru Legacy Wagon GT 5mt, i keep it stock because its a car i bought to serve my family and their safety..

Moral of the story....a car built for soly for HPDE is rice on the street. Aka try driving a JGTC GT500 Nissan GTR or a Forumla One to get groceries...you will hate your life.

This same principle goes for people who try to set up their street car to mimic racecars. There is a certain degree in which you should stop.
