How tough is a course like this on the suspension of a new car? I don't want to turn a new car into a battered car just because of some RallyX races. Can the WRX take occasional driving like this?

Thanks,

For the muddy track conditions at the time I used my 215/55R16 General Altimax Arctic winter tires. But sometimes summer tires could be better depending on the track conditions.

As for the suspension beating, it also depends on the track. Towards the end of the day the track dried out and got some decent sized bumps that I hit hard and bottomed out the suspension. Didn't have any damage in that area after the race.

I'd say go for it and just take it easy the first time out and go at your own pace. And try not to hit any cones
