So I go back and forth on this all the time and wanted to get some input and also see who else was in this situation during school. I want to start to do HPDE while in school with my current car and eventually with an E series BMW once money allows.
What I want to know is who while at JMU did this at the track if anyone, and if so how often you did this and how it worked out. I'm not sure how many other people who are current students think about this, but I know I really want to get into this, hence why I work at the track all the time and build up credits. It's safe to say after my first hyperdrive this past weekend with Jake (Thanks again for the great instructions), that I'm now addicted to driving on the track and ride alongs just don't do it for me anymore.
So who was tracking their car in college, and if not then are there reasons I should be aware of (obviously time and money). Also besides DJ and Jake, what current Alum track their cars either with NASA or with other organizations?
