Default Sorry, it is a karting track. Look at the video

Had an incredible amount of seat time. Have you ever done karting and I'm not talking Dromo 1, either. You'll be hooked.

Default that video is crazy. let me know what you think when you see it.

Rocky Moran Sr. was a big Indycar racer and sportscar racer. He raced for AJ Foyt and some of the other big names in the business. His son is trying to make a name for himself but if you know how hard it is for American race car drivers these days who aren't billionaires, you know the story.

Default Went through Skip Barber for national license

Did the track days and everything it's really a lot of fun. The Formula Dodge's were sweet to ride. Esp. when you go to the second course and drive the car on slicks instead of street tires. It's tailored to me though b/c it's open wheel racing and I'll be racing a Formula BMW either this summer or next summer. Still need some more sponsors though. The Formula BMW is a step up and is super light. I guess it's just what track the school is at and what time is good for you. I heard good things from all the schools.

LOL, yeah, that's why it was so frustrating too. Difficult to find the edge other than repetition.

Default did the one day race school at skip barber

It was a great class, but the best part about it was Laguna Seca. I loved that track and it's close by for me so an easy drive down.
