Wanting to Go Racing
Hello , I am new to this site and really like it. Anyway, I have been to the races alot starting way back in the early 80's . I have always had fairly fast street cars. Now my inner being is saying "Race! Race!" .
The problem is , I am intimidated. For what reason, I do not know. I know how bracket racing works. I feel very nervous. Not about winning or losing, I just want to have fun. I have never had a car on the race track. I am worried about staging correctly, and there are alot of classes and I am worried about getting in the correct staging lane. Is this just the first time jitters? You veteran racers out there, how was it the first time you raced? Any advice would be appreciated. One other question,,, I have a 55 chevy 2dr. 427 bbc with a muncie, Would the best thing be to go automatic if I am going to race??......
