oh of course... just hard to get the car home when the stock parts break when you're an hour and a half away from the house...

Lol that would suck, but 1 auto x event probably wouldn't leave your car non-functional.

I'd be pissed if the "sport suspension" on the sport package blew out after 1 session of agressive driving

Ark Exhaust, R2C intake, auto-x diffuser- all over the weekend.

Getting the CF Engine cover today.

Suspensions and new shoes will be done probably next month. I get paid monthly so it sucks.

The "sports suspension" isn't really designed for AutoX... just more spirited driving. Nothing Nissan did wrong, manufacturers don't generally build "track ready cars" with a few exceptions... I'm sure you drive your car pretty hard on a daily basis. Now take a hot day on a parking lot where you're hitting turns harder than usual, accelerating harder than usual through those turns, and everything extra hot from the heavy use... anything is likely to break...

Knock on wood auto x guys.

The runs are usually about a minute and half to two minutes for the track right? If you know the limits it should be fine. I don't think anyone around here is gonna run stock suspension if they're planning track time anyways

Exactly, you put the money up ahead of time and do a little preparation for the worse. And the run times depend on the track layout. It's just a bunch of cones
