I am really sorry that I constantly ask questions. I guess that I am quite nervous and want to be well prepared for my first track event.
I was talking to an instructor (also a test driver for Volkwagen) who tracks competitively with many years of experience. I told him my motivation and interest in participating in various track events this year and on. He then asked me what kind of car I would drive at the track. I told him that I wan to track my NSX.
His immediate response was, "no, you don't want to track such a nice car. You should pick up a cheap car, and race it." I, then, told him that I see a lot of NSX owners participating at the track events. He responded, "those people are highly experienced with many years of track experience. For someone like you, you don't want to use a car like NSX."
Now I am confused. I thought that a lot of folks here started track events with their NSX?? Is it because he was concerned that I may wreck my NSX?? I am getting worried as well..
Is starting with a cheap car necessary?
Any inputs would be appreciated.
Once again, I apologize for the continuous questions.
