I found the more I like cars and am around them the more the possibilities grow to spend money! (Well, you did warn me and 'Kitty about going to the track and the expense my friend.) Competition just adds fuel to the fire of $$$. But it's hard to deny the thrill and the fun of driving on the track (hey, again, you did warn me)!

Yes, the costs could get out of hand with SM to, but at some point if you find yourself doing this a lot some kind of track specific car with lower operating costs (and greater safety) starts making more and more sense. I think you've recommended thinking along those lines to others from time to time. I no where near considering that, but it's something I will keep in mind for down the road (or track as the case may be).

I was watching that Australian V8 Supercars series last weekend. Man, what a totally Aussie take on racing. Tight tracks, contact allowed even out of the pits! Kind of like Rubgy Racing IMO. Very exciting stuff and I plan to watch more.
