It says in your sig that you live in New Hampshire. NHIS is right in your backyard! The BMW CCA--Boston Chapter runs several events there each season. And you're not that far from Le Circuit Mont Tremblant here in Quebec.

Honestly, I don't see the point in owning a car like the Evo 8 unless you hit the track at least once in a while. This car doesn't make much sense on the street, but it literally comes alive at the track!

I could not agree more!

Greatest statement I have heard of on EvoM thus far.
I took my wife out to one and she is hooked also. It's beyond fun and goes straight to the addiction realm...do not pass GO, do not collect $200
I have seen about 12 track days this season and can't wait for next season to get started again.
i went to gingerman three times this past summer. i cannot wait until april plus route 66 is opening a road course this summer. about evo's being track cars i drive like an old lady on the street. we always have a large caravan going to gingerman from chicago and everyone does the speed limit all the way there (except for a couple of highspeed bursts). what warrenty?

I am including track days in the last year in my (now deceased) 350Z and my S4, since I have only had my EVO for 2 months. Now that I have the EVO RS, I will never track the S4 again (way to heavy at 3800 lbs.). I have done about 15 - 18 track days in the last year at Willow Springs Int'l Raceway (big track); Buttonwillow Raceway; Thunderhill Raceway; Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch; and Streets of Willow. I'm going to the roadcourse at California Speedway next Friday, Dec. 17.
