Default horrible new addiction... and its expensive too!

so I now feel the need to get my tracking fix at least 3-4 times a year. Might have to augment that with some auto-x and winter driving schools too. There goes $2-3K a year in track fees, gas & hotels.

Default Thus the reason I don't bother....

I know I'd just want to do it more and more and more...

I don't have the time or money for that.. I'd want a real track car too, somethign with lots of power, light, etc..

Default you havent been following along with the rest of the class I see.

yeah Watkins Glen was my first track event where I was allowed to drive on the track. I was at NHIS earlier in the year but that was a weaksauce parking lot thing. Before that I was at a winter driving school as seen in my siggy.

Default heh... its worse for me

because I commute with a friend that accompanied me to the Glen, so we talk about how to take which turn etc... That doesnt make it any better. Nor does the fact that I just registerd for the next one. So I'm all sorts of anxious to get back out.
