Emira track impressions

[Tracked Emira]

These cars handle heat well, I've tracked in > 100F days. Let it run a few minutes after you end a session so it can shed the heat, and you won't have heat soak problems. I think this was my 6th track day in this car.

This isn't a light car, and I don't know what caused my power steering to fail. Maybe it was tracking, maybe it was a manufacturing defect, maybe something else failed which led to the power steering failure. I'll know more once I get it to the dealer, since hopefully warranty will cover this. It's too early to make any broad conclusions about the steering rack, IMO.

Don’t tell them you track it because they said no to me at a dealership near Pocono raceway when my challenger power steering went. I towed it to my local dealership, but knew them and they covered it

It's pretty obvious when a car has been tracked, even if I don't tell them I can't possibly clean off all the evidence. I won't be volunteering this information, but I won't deny it. However, I'm pretty damn sure my power steering started to fail en route to the track, because the back of my car had spots of liquid sprayed on the back, it just had no symptoms inside when that was happening.

this is the third person on this forum I’ve read about having power steering failure. @VF Tuner said theirs failed at 300 miles. Can’t remember the other username that had issues. Starting to wonder if this is a bigger problem than just a few fluke cars.
