    Last years was my first year racing and it was worth every penny. I'll race next year and probably spend more and and it will still be worth every penny.

    Yep It was worth it. Every penny, operation,
    broken bone. The racers I met, raced against
    were family. Even direct competitors can and
    will lend you anything to get you out there.
    So they can race with you. I was sorry I didn't
    race 20 years ago when I was young stupid.
    Now I'm old and stupid and love it.
    I figure it this way: Save for retirement
    sit in an old folks home in a set of Depends
    or spend the $$ now, and leave NOTHING
    for the kids to inherit

    YEP all 18 years and roughly $120,000.00 of it. Both numbers still amaze me but I finally quit last year and now I'm lost. Though I do have a little more spending money.
