I dont think you're an idiot in the first place lol.

What I do think is that you're crippling yourself with your own mods.

Intake and exhaust does NOT mean you need a tune, so that excuse is out the window. Fearing for the safety of your car since its your only one IS a valid concern before hitting the track. And that is why you don't drive "at the limit". Driving "close to the lmiit" is STILL an exciting experience, especially your first times out. And the best part? You still wont be near the limit likely because you'll be scared shitless lol.

But I think you're setting a bar WAY too high. You're basically saying, "I dont want to JUST be knowledgeable...I want to learn how to do everything, right off the bat". Yeah well no **** haha - everyone wants to get the most out of each event. But you must start at the basics, and that means going slow. And with what you have done to your car, you can go do that right now without fear of "losing" anything. Besides, you can either gain much by going out and doing it, or gain absolutely nothing at all by sitting here and saying you only want to go out and get all or nothing.
