I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

I've got my tickets
Can you get paddock passes at the event, or do you need to get them beforehand? I didn't think about them until now, but they're a must-have if you like walk around the trailers and all...
