Default Idea

Does anybody know if there is a nonprofit organization to pay tracks to offer free track time? Seems like it would be a good way to keep kids from wrapping themselves around trees (and to keep my drivers licsense...)

Well its not like the tracks are that expensive to begin with. But I understand where you are coming from. I think it would make sense to build more tracks, so if you've just got to race somebody, it won't require an hour trip to get to the nearest track. But in that case the supply will definetely outweight demand - after all not that many people do race at all.
