i honestly think it would be VERY worth the money by the amount of knowledge you'll gain. By the time you leave the school I bet you $20 your braking points will be shorter, your race line smoother, and your lap times down. keep on keepin' on. How often you guys hit the track?

Also, anyone's opinion that counts won't call you a wuss or puss based on how fast you are on a sport bike. Remember its a hobby and all that counts is that you have fun and "live to ride another day."
sorry my english pwns.
basically, my entering speed will always be slower compared to other riders.I still dont have that fully grasped yet.
