Message	The more I read the more confused I get. I am looking at mid Ohio event on NASA website. It shows hpde for $209 on August 23. I would have to pay them $209 to have an instructor ride with me and I have to do lead follow? Is this pretty much the only way to get started driving on a real race track? I thought the would just have open test and tune lapping nights like you can do at the drag strip. I don't want to go through a whole 4 levels of driving school before I can let her loose full throttle. But apparently that's what you have to do. Am I missing something? 1995 Slicktop w/ TwinTurbo swap.
