what's the point of lapping really... just following the car in front of you and do a few laps?? what's the fun behind it?

It's a safe way of running your daily driver all out on a track...without someone clipping you in a corner and wrecking your car.

Life isn't gran turismo, unfortunately

Well, depending on the car and driver, when you come up behind somebody they should let you pass by. Power isn't everything, I was stuck behind a bright yellow S2000 (funny enough) at cayuga before and he wasn't letting anyone by...driver means more than what car you drive. I would say you should give it a shot, don't knock it till you try it. You can go to and event for like $60-$100
