I'm about an hour away from the two courses at NJMP. After the cost of the car, everything else is just the cost of a big boy hobby. At most, part of the extra cost of either over a 1LE, plus the consumables, etc.
And if you made the right decision in some other major life matter or otherwise worked it right, track weekends can become the excuse for the two of you to schedule a get-away weekend. I won't even try to put a value on that.
Yeah, one of each.
