living in new jersey, you are no more than an hour from some track. yes, it may be a bit more if traffic is bad.
from here in trenton i can get to atco or etown in 45-60 mins, island in a bit over an hour usualy, maple grove in under 1.5 hours, and cecil county is prolly around 1.5 hours depending on how 95 is around the philly airport too. that is 5 tracks in about the same distance i drove to the south meet last saturday!!!!
any of these tracks i will get a minimum of 3 runs, many nights you can get 10+ at several of them. run once, pull right back in the lanes. wanna race someone specific, they will help get you together. wanna gamble on it, no authority figure will give a hoot.
compare that to going out street racing. drive 30 mins to the closest, good, active meeting spot. sit around for an hour + while people trash talk each other and argue about stips then go to another spot, 15 more minutes of driving, and after all that you don't always get a race and the hyped up race doesn't happen half the time.
and even if you do get a run in, you still don't actually have proof of how fast/slow your car is and people argue about who won and where the line is constantly.
