Took My Is300 On A Track Day!

TerryD · March 23, 2009

A few weeks ago I took my IS300 on a track day. It wasn't my intention to take my car on the track but to ride in other peoples cars. Well I took it around Oulton Park and I embarrassed a lot of so called fast cars? I can say that I'm very pleased with the handling and the performance(for a standard car). Even some of my friends that I took around were surprised. Can't wait now to get a S/S exhaust for it( going to M.I.J. who do a very good job)

It didn't cost anything as it was part of a Marshals Track day(thanks to Mr.Palmer). But I think its about £140. Its a great track as most 'drivers' will tell you.

Sounds like you had a good day out matey :)

And a good thing about track days is you dont have to go round like a loony to enjoy it :)

I know when we went to germany last year, i went round the nurburgring at a leisurely pace but still loved every minute of it :D

i had a m.i.j exhaust fitted to my St24 it is a good bit of kit, straight through decat sports type 4inch jobbie. we got club discounts from STownersclub and they only charged me £350 for the full sport exhuast, and they are nice friendly people and you can watch all the work being done as well, i might have to save my pennies again.
