Depends on what is wrong with it. Track days put heavy strain on a vehicle so if there are potential problems they will show up quick. Aesthetic appearances are fine for track whores but mechanical reliability is key.

My ITR was the exact same thing.
15 minutes into the first session, burned up all the oil and spun a rod bearing. :heckno:

That makes me very sad. Its like paying 250+ bucks to break your engine.

Pretty much. I drove back from PR with a busted clutch and thankfully made it. Honda FTW! I'd imagine that's why some choose to have a track only car so downtime isn't a problem for day to day transportation.

any pics of your ITR at the time? curious if i've done a track day with you in the past. lol

Imma say this is 2007/2008:

Honestly, as I get older, having the trailer and an SUV to tow with is a great thing.
Auto tranny, AC, soft comfy seats, and HID headlights for night time driving.
And in the case of the CRX, powersteering FTW.

I broke the ITR at ORPT. $1000 bux later, that was a scary 10 hour drive home in a Uhaul. Luckily for me, the track day was on a saturday and I had all day Sunday to drive home.

yeah, breakdowns far from home scare me. If I get back into it enough I'll consider buying a trailer and use the 4Runner to tow. Then the wife and baby can come too! And they can take the 4Runner somewhere if they get bored.

Do none of you guys have BCAA? Seems a lot cheaper than running a tow rig.

BCAA won't fully cover you if you break down far away from home.
BCAA Premium only covers 2 tows a year up to 320 km's.
Compare Membership Types | BCAA

Pacific Raceways is 238 km's to the truck crossing.
Ridge is 319 km's to the truck crossing
BCAA would work for these 2 tracks.

PIR is 450 km's to the truck crossing.
ORPT is 578 km's to the truck crossing if you don't take I5.

I guess you could use BCAA, but I can guarantee you it wouldn't be one tow truck driver driving you all the way back to Canada if you broke down at PIR or ORPT.
So that means break down on Sunday, home by Monday night (maybe)

And, like I said. Leaving work late friday night and driving all night to sleep in your car at the track is no fun.
AFter spending all day in the sun and trying to drive home Sunday night sucks too. I'm not 20 anymore and would gladly take an extra day or 2 to come home safe and sound.

I have a stock Honda s2000 that has been very well maintained by honda exclusively. Never been in an accident, low KMs, new tires and brakes.

Buy Buy Buy!!!

Omg I want so bad but my money is tied up. :(

reverse image search says its probably a scam/fake add, 38 results for that picture.

Pic is RHD... plate in background is (maybe) not BC... I assume it's just a generic photo? Was this the same one that was FS in Chilliwack a little while back?

Oh good thing you guys caught that. I almost emailed the guy.

there isnt an email address..

The ad is fake as f*ck. No one would sell their 65,000km S2000 for $10,000.

Lol whoevers number that is, gonna get alot of text and phone calls

2001 Honda CBR600F4i silver and black

Good starter bike

i don't like the part about it sitting for a few years and it needing new fluids. i don't care if it's fuel injected if it's running on a tank of gas that is several years old. cleaning injectors is no fun. and no test rides? i get that the seller is trying to weed out joyriders but never buy without riding first.

check for dry rot and flatspotting in the the tires and condition of anything else with rubber, and a compression check, or at least scope out the cylinders to see if the walls have glazing.

Right, but it would get you close enough to home to organize a tow the rest of the way without breaking the bank. I'd have to be doing a lot of track days with a temperamental car to justify owning and maintaining a tow vehicle and trailer just for that.

I'm not sure what that has to do with using a tow vehicle, you can sleep in hotels and take your time either way.

some things to help with searching even though most of it is timing

-if you hit your spacebar once in the search box and hit search it will usually bring the most current results up, found a $500 crf250r this way before the vultures

-change search terms eg I am looking for a Toyota 4runner. I search 4runner, then forerunner and finally Toyota runner and have found deals this way.

-the search terms "blown" "project" "mechanic" have gotten me a couple deals

-Always phone when possible

This doesn't interest me in the slightest, but I can't deny its a good deal, even considering the rebuilt title.
2001 Porsche 911 Turbo 62,000kms

Damn, other than the colour, that is amazing! Tan on bronzit haha. The antithesis of the holy grail of colour combos. If its in decent mechanical shape suspension, bushing wise, etc it would make an amazing autocross/track car with some 15s and some sticky tires.
