I meant, to watch. I'm not even comparing myself to the pack leaders. Maybe after I submit to some rigorous training and practice. Maybe.

S'what I'm sayin! Driving fast takes practice, practice, practice. All of these things add skill in some areas. Karting and AutoX are fantastic for control. HPDE/RDE are great for leaning what a "line" is, along with alternate lines. Do all of them, and you get very good, very fast.

I definitely see HPDE in my future. Most likely in the fall.

Thanks, man! I figure I can get a few cruises in over the summer and better learn where I'm the limiting factor in driving experiences, then have someone teach me to take it to the next level when it's a bit cooler out.

NO NO NO! Do NOT learn your limits on cruises! Trust me. Save that for HPDE and AutoX!!

Ok.

This is why I keep you guys around. What would I do without you?

I've seen stuff on the HPDE, but not AutoX. Tell me more...

Driving on cruises and on a track are two completely different worlds.

So, for my own benefit and so I may best learn from and enjoy my driving experiences, what is your recommended progression? Shouldn't I have a base level of comfort with my own vehicle before signing up for HPDE or AutoX? When is it enough?
