They just did drag week if you want to check out some of what Americans call "Street" cars. 5 of them ran reliable 6 second 1/4 mile passes @ 200-219mph.

I took that approach with the ST. It ate the rotors in the process, not a big deal as they were all of 120 each but I doubt the sti rotors are as disposable.
Should be good for more than 2 laps with an sti, but tires are probably going to overheat and lose a bunch of grip before anything else, throw some performance pads at it and you should be sweet.
I went on a track day when I was ~19 as a friends dad thought I might enjoy it. he didn't mention until we got there that it was basically a day for old pro drivers to get their kids/grand kids on track. It was like having your grandpa in the car yelling at you your driving like a pussy, get on the power earlier. Your lines are all wrong. Braking way too early and not hard enough. Was brilliant/10 would do again.
Imo the whole point of buying a new car is that you shouldn't need anything more than off the shelf maps, if you want it wildly modified. Why buy new when you can get something older, spend the same money as the new car and get way more performance.

Garage parking at night, off street during the day and low yearly km as I have a work van that does most of my km. Martin is probably helped by living out of town and working from home so he is much lower risk.
