Hans reminds us that not all track time is equal.

Definitely depends on the car, setup and laptimes the driver typically ran.

Slow times in an Elise on street tires could mean very little wear and tear.

A fast driver in a really heavy car like a Nissan GTR could mean a full 
mechanical restoration.
