I know a couple of guys who had that same attitude until they raced at Calder Park and now are there most Friday nights!
I agree. I was a P-plater until yesterday, went on to my opens today. But I thought street stuff was ok, but doing skid pan days and drag nights, well what can I say? I dont think there is anything MORE fun!! I love them. Off street stuff is way better. On the strip, you get photographers, people, timeslips, video footage, everything. Its great, it is soooo damn fun.
Its also alot cheaper. I did a bit of a slide at an intersection once, and got fined $240 for it. I go to a skid pan and can do it all day, with noone else to hurt in an environment where there is nothing to hit, for $70. To me, its cheaper and funner. Way funner.
