Hi sports fans. A friend and I have been kicking around the idea of getting into road racing for a few years now. We're just going to be weekend racers (though from my motocross days I know that to race weekends, you gotta fix it during the week!), so we don't want to get into a class that forces us to spend hundreds a month maintaining the car and keeping it competitive. The initial cash outlay for the car shouldn't be overwhelming, either; maybe a few grand between us. So, assuming there really are netters who do something besides read the news and ski, we're looking for whatever tips you might have to offer. What other sanctioning bodies exist besides SCCA? We'd like to call them all. Are some better than others - and why? What's your best advice on cheap but fun racing? Gotta be a road course and against other drivers, not just the clock. If this should generate enough traffic, I'll be happy to post a summary for anyone who's also interested. -- Guy Finney {decvax|ihnp4|hao}!noao!terak!anasazi!guy

Sigh. I've just learned that one of our upstream newsfeeds does not pass net.auto along. So if anyone has words of encouragement, I'd appreciate them as mail to me. Thanks. -- Guy Finney {decvax|ihnp4|hao}!noao!terak!anasazi!guy
