Are you finally serious about getting off the couch or out of the stands and onto a race track? Are you a kart racer looking to move on to cars? Or are you just looking for a day of fun behind the wheel? Here is the right spot to get you off and running. From dirt oval tracks to some of America's most famous road courses, there is a seat out there with your name on it. Before you do anything else, do lots of research. There are tons of opportunities and divisions to compete in with a level to suit your finances. Sports car drivers should look into doing some autocrossing or HPDEs (High Performance Driving Events). These are great ways to get some seat time at speed and learn what it takes to be successful in motorsports. Read or browse through some magazines like Speed Sport News, Grassroots Motorsports, Racer, or Circle Track Magazine. These publications will provide information on different racing series, driving schools, and motorsports events.
