One of the easiest ways for YOU to get on TRACK with YOUR car, is the Track Night in America (TNiA) program from the fine folks at the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA.) While I won't try to squeeze two acronyms into every sentence, I can tell you that this is a fun way to do a little driving on track without breaking the bank or taking up an entire weekend.
The idea of these events is to give more drivers a good experience on track for the first time. To do that, you'll see TNiA events scheduled during the week in the late afternoon, so that you can maybe take half a day off work and drive on track with just a little bit of guidance. It's NOT racing, it's NOT competitive, it's 100% meant to be a fun introduction to driving on a track.
In 150 events at 30 tracks across the country (well, ok, maybe not in Hawaii and Alaska) there is likely one near you. You can learn more about the SCCA and specifically TNiA at this link: TNiA CLICK ME
