DD or track toy?

Just curious- how many of you will be using your FT as a daily driver or track toy?

Both, thought If I can afford It I want a second one just for track. But mostly Daily Driver and hmm alot of time people say both, but most of the time their car will never see a track let alone race on one.

Auto Cross seems more possible, since few of us actually does track days.

Correct me if Im wrong.

Don't see need for Both option.

I still think it be nice to have a hatch version to help the other member trackers carry their tires. I used to do that with my Civic Si Hatch all the time.

Definitely would be nice! But we always had to take a truck for our extra tires. :x

Nice! Your friend has his own track?!

And maybe even horse thief mile once I learn how to drift!

It's amazing to walk/pedal the actual track either in the morning or towards the end of the day. You get to see a whole different perspective!

Well from the PA announchment, The VP seems to understand that we don't own a truck and trailer, so if they give us a Lift back option which is most likely, then all our problems are solved. Still I wouldn't mind a hatch version like Ichi's shop the one that looks like a Ferrari FF.

Should be a Both option. I will take mine to the track, but I already have a track toy, so I plan to DD and track it ever so often. Then my track toy can go full duty track.
