So I found a road course not too far away from my house.  Wonder what they'd charge me to just take a few laps :)

We setup group deals at courses in Texas. If your a member of a club they usually have track days and you can get a better deal. Most tracks have open days for folks to run. You make laps with a track safety official to get to know the track. Once your up to speed they'll let you run it yourself. Generally there are other drivers on the track at the same time and use hand signals for passing.

Be sure to check gear requirements..... helmet clothing type and such. Your car will get inspected for safety of course.
