And anecdotally I know of a Honda dealer that suggests his s2000 customers track their cars.

As for me, I personally know the service writer at the local dealership, I'm sure he'd give me no problems.

I suppose the real issue is not individual dealers, but what Honda corporate's stance on this is. Do they officially terminate warranties when someone has tracked (not raced) their car?

I would not worry about it too much. Honda is very good about servicing their customers and if a dealer is giving you grief, call your area manager.

Jason, you should come up to GingerMan with us sometime, or have you already?

Mugen2000, no I haven't been to Gingerman with you guys, although I have been there other times. It is one of the few tracks in the area I haven't driven on yet. You go with Nick and Greg, right?

I'm game, but probably not in the S2K... it's not 100% mine, and I don't like the idea of running on a track with no roll cage. I'll gladly run my Corrado, though... I think you guys will be surprised at how quick it is. Of course, I'd always accept a drive in someone else's S2K!

And spike - First race is in mid-February so there's a little time. Shouldn't be a problem to get it back in time, but should it require a new engine we'll have to break it in again! (torture)

Is this situation somehow different than John Eagle Honda in Houston having a track weekend at Texas World Speedway?

We are signed up for that, but geez, a dealer is sponsoring it!

Jason, I have gone up to GingerMan quite a few times with Nick and Greg, they are good friends of mine. The S2000's factory roll cage is approved by pretty much every track I can think of, but not fully owning the car, I would understand. Bring on the VW.
