I get the whole stress relief thing, that was the number one reason I was doing Driver's Ed events and I was doing just about as many if not a few more DE days than what you currently do. I can't really comment on what it's like to race, although it is something I did want to try to see if I preferred that over DE. I can say that I know first hand that it feels like to poop to have an on-track incident by a driver that in my opinion wasn't paying attention and looking far enough down the track. I was hit on the pass side at track out on T9 at Summit Point Main. That was two and a half years ago and this coming Saturday I will be going to pick my car up as it is finally finished. Since you understand the risks, understand the potential expense, would you be able to handle it emotionally/financially if something were to happen to you or your car? After the experience that I've gone through, I will still participate in DE because I think it is excellent driver training but my involvement will be much less than before after I have my car back. I wish the best of success in whatever you decide.
