thnx a lot mike. that is exactly the feedback I am looking for. With a no bs reply like that I can make a decent decision about how little I want to spend at track days. Since I just purchased a new R6 but will probably use my f3 as my race bike at first, I believe the local track (Firebird in az) entitles me to a free day with my receipt. And I am glad you mentioned the "not good enough" syndrome, luckily in all competitive things I prefer just to go out and do them as was meant to be (ie football/lacrosse, play with better players even if i don't shine and always allow full contact, no whoosying around) so I guess I'll have to call on suits and the liscensing program (if there is one here :/ ) as to following the money, i somewhat grasp what you're talking about but correct me if I have misunderstood. Why go spend $ on track days that offer watered down and inconsistent teaching (in reference to track days nationally) when you can just jump into racing and build your skill correctly (money truly well spent) as well as a minutely possible foundation for making money at it?
