B. In my youth, I used to crash at a lot of club races....we didn't have trackdays and schools...the novices got to take a lap around the track with one of the licensed racers, we pulled off into the hot pit, and then got waved back out for a 20 minute practice. If you survived, you got to grid and race.
Crashed a few times, spent a lot of money and had a good time, learned a lot of what not to do. Never was very fast, and now that I'm more experienced, I'm too old to let it all hang out.
Call me a slow learner.

That's unfortunate that you can't come. Maybe next year's rally.
That club racing history sounds pretty helter-skelter. Yikes!
I'm sure with your knowledge and experience even what you consider old and slow would still be a fun ride
