    Just curious to find out how many F-car owners take their cars to the track and how often? Also, what is the fastest you have driven your Ferrari?

    Tracking is not racing.

    Racing is side by side for a checkered flag and tracking is legally going over the speed limit in a semi controlled environment

    I'd assume only the guys with Challenge cars on the Ferrari Challenge are racing them or GT3 cups on the Patron cup.

    Possibly a couple Ferrari GT guys on here from ALMS as well

    Track or race: which one (as they are not one and same)?

    I race but not my street Ferrari. I'm not a proponent of using a street car at the track; I may get a proper F race car some day.

    Its properly known as "High Performance Driving." There is no time clock and no checkerd flag, nor are laps counted, ...

    My F355 has been on track 42 times.

    Chuckwalla Valley, Willow Springs, Buttonwillow, or Spring Valley. Don't have the #8 car anymore. #11 car for sale now. Guess I'll have the street car forever.

    Take a look at the FCRA section of Other Racing, lots of Ferrari racers there.
