Any 924 owners out there who use their cars for track days?
I've owned an '83 924 for four years now and this year have started tracking it. Strong recon engine (purchased from Lodge Sports), set of Comp MO wheels (pretty much standard 924 race spec I gather) with 205/50 tyres has been the only money spent on the my car all year.
However having done Rockingham this weekend I have discovered a couple of areas that need attention - brakes and suspension - nothing important! I guess Rockingham emphasised these areas due to the tight infield and the way you have to brake down off the "banked" section into an essentially 180degree left.
Has anyone upgraded brakes and suspension for such use? If they have what success have you had? I like to use the car daily too so I'm not looking to compromise it too much.
If you haven't ever used your cars for track days then go on - it's great! You could never safely explore what this great handling little car can do without trying on a circuit.
