Thanks for the kind words. You deserve a medal if you read thru this entire thread!

The whole point of this thread is that ANYONE can do this if you put forth the required time, effort, and money.

I'm just a regular guy (person?) like all of you: I work. I have a family. I wasn't born wealthy so I've earned every dollar that I spend. There is nothing particularly special about me in terms of driving or racing. Sure, I'm motivated and capable of learning but so are you. I had to start from knowing nothing about performance driving and racing and learned as I went. I have decent eye-hand coordination and fine motor skills but I'm definitely not a natural born racing driver. It's been a long and arduous journey but one that I wouldn't want to have missed. Persistence, commitment, and hard work are my primary skill set.

There is no doubt, if I can do this, you can too. Anyone can.

P.S. Stay safe, hope that you and your family were out of harms way.
