For anyone who has time on track with a track car..there is no such thing as a track/ road car.

Take a gt4 or gt3 porsche and then get next to the same “model” but it’s a real cup car. By the time you get buckled up I’m half a lap ahead. And after the 2nd lap street/track brakes pads would be on fire in a cup car.
This doesn’t mean I won’t drive something that blurs the line a bit


Edit: Also as fast and as amazing as the AMG One is, there’s zero chance it would hang with a legit F1 car

I actually can’t stand the trope “race car for the street”, that makes me cringe pretty hard. I understand the trade offs between street car and race car. But something that leans really far towards race car sounds so fun as a weekend warrior, just not as an actual daily driver

Something like this looks so awesome and I’d probably have a boner every time I drove it. But there is no way I’d drive this more than 100 miles a month

not sure your generation but back in my day, LOL, us guys had one car and it did everything . I had a 1970 "Cuda 440 SixPack that was my daily driver and ran 10.50's at the track on weekends. 440 auto 4:56 rear
Not as fast as stuff today but fast for the time period. Then my Chevelle that ran 11.50's and became my daily as it was better on fuel than the Cuda.
 
I wish I could tolerate the altitude at Lake City. It may be full of tourists by now, been 6 years since we were there. Used to go every summer and camp out at the Lake.
Really cool area with interesting mining history. We were there elk and deer hunting a few years back.

“Jack of all trades, master of none”

I get wanting a fast, fun daily driver but it makes a bit more sense to have a “fun” car for weekend/Friday driving and a stone stock, bland bowl of oatmeal to rack up the miles on.
