plus, if you DO take it to a track (which you'd better) -- you WILL be very quickly humbled in learning that your self-perceived "awesome driving skill" can easily be beaten. It will be. Deal with it.

This will easily negate your (aimed at no one in particular) attitude of "Yes, I do race/drive fast on the roads, but I know what I'm doing. I'm skilled. I've driven a XXX horsepower YYY car for years without a single incident"

Who cares. So, go there, be humble, learn, improve yourself.

That way, if you ever are presented with an emergency crash-avoidance scenario in the real world, on public roads, your improved skills could actually help save your life, and others.

And, you will also have the satisfaction of having more fun than you could ever imagine by competing in a safe, controlled environment when you do go to the track.

TAKE IT TO THE TRACK.
