Exactly, If you know someone with a membership then you can be invited as their guest and they will let guys with cool cars do a few events to get them hooked. Like a good drug dealer your first hit is free!

There are also several groups that do track days at Harris Hills and COTA (the F1 track for guys not from Austin) Here are the 2 I know of, they love their Facebook organizations.

and to an extent these guys

From what I can tell The Driveway is the best bang for the buck when it comes to seat time per dollar so after I get my toys sorted I'll be heading that way first and to Harris if I get and invite.

TOW looks killer! I need to get Eric's info from you. I don't have a body / painter I trust so I'd like to pick his brain and it would be nice to know a local shop that does real PT cars as well.
