For racing, check out www.nasaproracing.com for your local regions. They offer both racing, time trials and lapping days.

Sebring, Daytona (no getting on track here unless racing), Road Atlanta, Roebling Road, V.I.R., and a few others (Moroso, Homestead, etc.). Chin Motorsports is a good way to get on track and get a feel for it. I'm on their instructor list, so if you do an event with them, let me know, and I may be able to instruct for you!

Yeah, Daytona definately rocks. So smooth, so fast. Just sucks that no track day sanction groups run there. I guess Daytona probably makes more money giving shuttle tours through Daytona USA. haha

But it's alright, just a short, vacant, 1-hour drive to Sebring and I'm in bumpy-a$$ track heaven.
