how many opportunities for affordable motorsport in your area?
When I was growing up (some say I haven't quite finished) we had 2 speedway tracks in the area and 2 good competing car clubs (wac and mg), several dirtbike clubs and a cart club and several unnoficial paddock weekends
as a kid/teenager it was easy and relatively cheap to compete in local motorsport, I spent several years in club level rallying, a small run in carts and even a few laps in speedway but stayed away from those things on 2 wheels,they fall over way too easy, I strongly believe it has made me a better driver
nowdays it seems all to expensive and out of reach for the average father to put a child into the very limited options out there, what happened to speedway? where have all the amateur car clubs gone?
waaay too much red tape and very few options
in America they race lawnmowers ffs
Europe, Briton, they have many cheep local motorsport options that the whole family enjoy , a lot of country towns have a racetrack
I know there is a lot out there for dirtbikes, but nothing for cars anymore
