And the worst part? Some people just can't do it. They weren't born to be the next Senna and no matter what, they simply cant do it. I'm not saying this is you, I'm just giving fair warning.
Your car wont be any more ready, save for track-prep mods. You wont be any more ready until you convince yourself mentally that you can do it. Until that happens, it simply wont happen.
Also, you wont drive alone your first weekend out. If you desire to, you're a fool. If your instructor lets you, he is a fool.

I know it's not something that would happen in 1 week, month, year, or multiple years. But that's what I'm saying, I want to climb that ladder, however long it takes to GET to that point ONE DAY. To be able to have that accomplishment.
Right, it will take a lot of time/effort/money to get there. I'm doing it as best I can with what I've got. What I don't have are experienced people around me that I can ride along with to gain the knowledge, so I research and read what I can from those that do on here. It's not the best case scenario, but it's doing the best I can with what I've got. Sorry if I do things out of order.
And I never said my first weekend I'd do all that stuff, of course the instructor would be an idiot to let me free reign my first time. But again, you're assuming I wanna go from now to Indy in one week. This is not what I'm saying!!
