Even after you are cut loose its great to get other folks in your car to offer thoughts on lines and technique as you always have something new to learn.

Best of all... the things you learn stay with you in every car you ever drive. As such its a better investment than any gizmo, hot part or bit made of unobtanium that you can ever add to a car.
Well said, I wish more poeple would spend money and time behind the wheel instead of spedning it on the next mod that will surely make them the most awesome driver in the world. lol.
