The big blue one - world's slowest auto-x car
I've used my Miata for autocross since 2005 or so:
And I've done a couple of track days in my C900:
I don't own this one, but I've campaigned it with the Indiana Rallycross club all season and towed it to and from events. It's great:

Not me. But you may have seen one of Carlos's (Condor Speed Shop, one of my sponsors) e30s out there, or one of the other guys that he sponsors. He's in Florida and IIRC they may have been up at RA recently, but can't say for sure.
That would be a long trip in rallykar
If you count autocross as racing[*] this car.
One of the MSCC members who's a graphic arts guy made "trading card"-style images for some of the members.
Of course, it has been nearly two years since I attended an event. Up until this month it was not running. That's been fixed. Now I need to get back out there.

[*] - yes, there are times involved, but I describe it to my students as "driving around in circles in a parking lot on three wheels and pretending it is a motorsport." I live in the south, so if it does not involve running wheel to wheel, having intentional collisions and playing on dirt circles, the locals may not recognize it as racing.
Once upon a time...
Hill climbed, autocrossed, TSD rallied, track whore:
They're gone. Current race car, though with my significantly reduced income I'm debating what 2014 may bring:

be honest: when you hang the tail out, is it more fun than 90% of the rice you've driven? If so, who cares if it's in the running for little plastic trophies.

Sure about that?
Tried a few autocrosses with the Toaster before I discovered rallycross and bought the MR2. Had never competed in anything, could barely remember the course that overlapped itself 2-3 times let alone apexes and fast lines.
