Here's what I decided to do. I might go to the FULL 3-day racing school, but I'm not going to do it yet. I have 4,000 but that would be a shabby way to spend it IF I was going to buy my own go kart and gear instead, meaning I could race whenever I want. I do think Skip Barber is worth it though, but like you said, it's better to have more money in the bank.
When I don't have to worry about college this summer, I'm going to look into buying a brand new kart...probably a 2 stroke because I like how they sound, I haven't decided. Then I'll use SOME form of transportation to trailer it around, that's definitely not decided, so does that sound good? I could go to any track i want and practice, eventually join karting events. My main focus is getting into autocross with my go kart, because those events are a lot easier to find. You don't know how badly I want to race right now, anyway to do it, I'll do it.
