I had my almost brand new 2020 GT convertible, Pilot Sport 4's only 4k miles on them, stock brakes still lots of meat on the pads, new roll bar, check, helmet, check, first time tools, check (too many of course), waters, fruit, snacks, chairs, check, check, check. Off I went to this HPDE thing! Some said look out you might enjoy it, and they were right! Now I find myself looking at things from a different viewpoint ....
You might be track rat if...
you raise your fist when taking the off ramp from the highway.
you're trying to apex every curve, even the ones in the circles.
you're upset when you see the driver in front of you not EVEN trying to apex those same curves.
you think of your subdivision turn off as the Hot Pit.
you keep waiting for a point by from the dude going 30mph in a 50mph.
you actually give someone a point by on the Interstate, oh what???
approaching stops and red lights you figure out the braking zone needed to keep speed up to that last second.
you're calculating how many times you'd pass that jerk in the Tuner if you were both on the track now.
you notice that somehow you keep parking Grand Prix style at the Kroger.
you call your driveway the Cold Pit.
after parking at work you pop the hood to cool off the engine.
in traffic you really, really wish they had a guy with the blue flag with the yellow slash out there waving folks down.
driving in constructions zones are considered under yellow flag.
you have a "parts budget" in your monthly bills spreadsheet.
and finally your family has learned to give you the checker flag when coming home if they want to borrow money or have you buy dinner!
LOL
