Turn 8 at Thunderhill will get you everytime if you are less than 1/2 tank, stock.

Hmm, fair enough. I guess my statement was a little too generalized and based off my own and local experience. We've owned 3 Mitsubishis, driven them all very hard and have had virtually no problems. And having worked at the dealer, we generally took care of everyone regardless of track use. But obviously your experience may vary. I suppose driving any car flat out repeatedly is bound to produce problems of some sort. And I know a lot of the Mitsubishi guys like to modify their cars to hell. Oh well, sorry for making such a blanket statement.
