As a race fan, there's nothing better than a weekend spent at the racetrack. However, the whole time I'm there, while enjoying the racing I get to watch, I continually think, "I WANNA DO THAT!" I've wanted to race for a few years now, but I always let the money involved back me out of it. This year needs to be the end of that, though.
Now, my reasons for starting this post: I don't know where to start. I'd like to eventually get into a sprinter, but God knows that's no place to start. :icon_smile_blackeye So, where should I begin? Most guys in the sprint ranks seem to have started at half my age (or less) racing karts and then moved into mods or mini-sprints, or midgets before stepping up to the 410s. But that boat has sailed for me, so does anybody have any advice on where a guy should get his feet wet in the racing world?
I realize that starting at 22 (well, 23, cuz I won't be able to race until next season) that I'll never have folks knocking my door down to get me to Indy or Daytona, I'll likely never win a USAC title or even a track championship, but I wanna race, damnit! :checkered:
