Let's get an idea as to what each of us enjoys doing most - automobile-speaking, of course.

The results could be used to infer what type of vehicle each of us prefers.

I actually prefer all of those, anyone of them would be a great way to enjoy a weekend.

C'mon, MRV, you've GOT to have a favorite. How's this: Given your favorite vehicle, which event would you choose?

I go through spells of doing 3 of the 4 as Ive never raced on a road course. I can't pick just one. The offroad excursions may be the top simply due to being able to stop anywhere at anytime for some "offroad sodas" with friends.

I honestly don't have a "favorite" vehicle and when it comes to motor/power sports, I'm really not partial to anything in particular. I honestly don't spend much time at the track these days as I don't have the time to prep a car/bike for racing nor have the time to wrench it when it breaks.

I've enjoyed a wide variety of recreational automobile pursuits over the years with the exception of terrain off-roading.

I find track/road course racing most enjoyable.

My daily driver is an Audi S4 (M6). The Audi Ice Experience is a lot of fun, and great for winter driving education...and it helps to make the cold winter months a bit more bearable.

One of my DD's is also an S4, I have a 2013 with the DSG trans that I purchased new last year. It's my first German car (had 4 new Acuras prior to it) and I absolutely love it. Got a set of 18" replica wheels with Blizzaks for winter duty and it's a friggin beast!!!! The Audi Ice driving experience looks quite fun...... I couldn't find anything in the states on it though?

Perfect high performance car driving weekend for me would be road race track on one day and drag racing on the next.

The best weekend is when nothing breaks and I don't have to fix, adjust, add, or fabricate anything. Don't even have to leave the driveway to have a successful car weekend.
