[QUOTE="Mort, post: 149087, member: 361"] OH man...you guys just walked into my thread ;:;rofl;) LOL Come to papa.....lol I raced for 18 years of my life, the last time I unbuckled was 2011...do i miss it? painfully yes...been around it all my life... Its an expensive hobby let me tell ya, even on a weekly basis. My brother has a full size sprint, actually donny's 2011 house car out of fargo shop before he hooked up with STR I believe. He is just racing when we can, last year we hit 5 shows out of 9 that were scheduled locally, we are getting up there in age so, the sprint car is the last stop for us, I wouldn't race anything. But my advice for those starting out, start at the lowest class possible and learn the ropes, I don't care how much money you have to spend, its not gonna do yo a damn good if you can't drive a car if its more than you can handle. There's lots to learn besides just mashing the pedal. I have seen too many guys start out in a class thats over their head, just to watch them make enemies because they don't know how to drive and cause wreck after wreck, thats what the hobby stock class is for...beginners...and yes its looks eaiser said than done. You'll spend lots of time in the garage just getting ready ever week, there's always maintenance to do before every week. Took me 8 years in the street stock class (hobby) to win my first track championship in willy in '95 I have 3 track runner ups in the mini sprint class as well. So thats my career in a nutshell. Like any outdoor activity, you have to have the passion for it, to do good in it, otherwise its gets to be no fun. [/QUOTE]
