Bernie, I can tell you from experience that a day at the race track (driving within your limits) would produce far less body damage, chips and scratches than the 20 odd thousand kilometres you drive on country SA and Vic roads each year.
If you are worried about the paint job don't do all those K's.
You've got that other red and yellow sports car to drive haven’t you.
I personal built my car to drive bloody hard and that's what I do.

I just wish I had more time to do it more often.
