I can guarantee you'll drive home from the event, eat dinner, and fall asleep thinking about your runs and how you can improve. I know I did.

Not to sound like Obi-Wan or something but you also get the fun of knowing you're taking your first steps into really learning how to drive your car. You can apply that knowledge any time you get behind your car or any other. Whether you're driving spiritedly, just motoring about, or defensively driving.


Thanks, but right after I'm heading out to the club. The track ends at like 4 and I have to be in DC by 5 for a formal dinner then out clubbing.
