Wow, 3 pages of replys...anyone admit to NEVER going to the race track and only being a keyboard racer?

I consider myself to be a racer in training... looking to learn as much as i can, i want to go to the track more, but life gets in the way. working night shifts and never seeing the family, the wife wants me around on the weekends instead of at the track...especially when I lose 1 weekend a month to the reserves as well. I've made maybe 20-30 passes down the track total. 1 race and 2 TnTs.

went to a car show at a track, had a race too, it was my first time at any track. my car was slower than a honda civic, but I went 5 rounds without a clue as to what i was doing! I ended up breaking out because I just wanted to go fast! the other guy broke at half track and I knew it/heard it, but I never lifted at the line, so I broke out by .004 from that point on, I was hooked, and knew i wanted to do a lot more of that!
