If you dont care about being competitive superfastawesomewinhondachallenge, then yes, its a much more sustainable deal.
I never felt burnt out doing events as an instructor, especially with a street car. I had to change the oil and front brakes a few times a year, and that was it once I got the car set up/sorted out. I think Evan & I did 15 or 16 weekends one year and it was a blast. My normal prep for the weekend involved putting gas in it and loading a toolbox, jack, camp chairs and cooler into the hatch. I do miss those days a little - or maybe I just miss the ITR
Race weekend prep started a week before the event, and kept on going until tues after.
