Cool. I have a friend who got into open wheel racing a little. Actually, the costs of running in entry level series sounded reasonable--cars are relatively cheap to aquire and maintain. What he didn't like was kids with ambition (moving up the ladder and trying to get noticed to get free rides or even pay) doing stupid things on the track. Less of an issue with production cars I would think. Most of us are just tooling around because this is what makes us tick, and not to eventually climb into an F1 seat.
