What's stupid about "modifying cars" are the people that build cars to the extreme. We've all seen the build threads, magazine articles and blog features. Some dood takes "X-car" and turns it into a parts mash, custom work, fanboi dream all in the name of "Race car".
I know of several 240's on this form that went down that path. Expensive bracing, roll cages, fixed back seats, A/C deletes, all new control arms, suspension arms, big brakes, crazy wheels, expensive body kits... et al... owners then ended up all emo because they have EXTREMELY HARSH cars that always had something wrong, that never seemed as perfect as their photos implied and at the end of the day the car wouldn't even compare to a base C6 on the track. oh, and these cars never saw the track in the first place.
Do it because you like to tinker. Don't do it for show.. and yes, a "omfg daily race car" is for show. Paying $50 three times a summer to "drift" in a parking lot is not a race car.
These are racecars.
