			 As a Christmas and birthday present my girlfriend is sending me to the 2 day Porsche Sport Driving School! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) A bunch of Porsches and the Barber Motorsports Park has got to be pretty close to auto nirvana. I watched one of the videos on you tube about it and Hurly Haywood is doing a hot lap around the track in a Cayman, talking about how he loves mid engine cars and how he used to race 914s and how much he loves driving them. Has anyone on here done this driving school? Any advice going in?

		Track driving is an addiction that can be more expensive than any drug habit. You will have an absolute blast, and will want to go again. You will want to do start doing DE's, but will soon learn that your 914 is actually slow compared to the cars you drove at the school, so you will soon either start upgrading your car, or looking to get another track-only car. Then comes upgrading that car, new stickier tires, the trailer, tow vehicle, etc. etc. etc..... Sorry...you're now toast. Ask me how I know... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Welcome to the insanity. And don't say you weren't warned.... Have fun!!  |

Haha (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) I've been a member here for long enough to know you have a pretty bad case of the Trackitus. I'm just hoping some people are more susceptible to it than others. I hear there is no cure and treatment is very expensive.  |
