Maybe I'm not the average guy, but here we go, I track my car regularly. I change oil after almost every event. Depending on time between events I swap brake pads. Not that I have to, but I pay about $550 for a complete set of track pad. Why wear them down on the street when $120 a set pads will do. Every major part of the car is checked and recheck. A safety inspection is required for every track weekend. My engine was totally rebuilt in the winter of 2011 and 2015. It might come out again this spring before my first track event. It's called piece of mind. I don't buy cheap junk part.

I guess what I'm trying to say is the car is mechanically more sound because I track it than most street only cars.
