Fitness is important to me, it's necessary to be successful at racing. When I first started I was weak and skinny. I would get tired out halfway through a race from all the g force and start to make mistakes. This problem was magnified on particularly hot days, which happen a lot in a summer racing season. On multi-day race weekends I would be completely wiped out by the second day. Getting in shape had a noticeable and immediate impact on my ability to maintain a consistent pace. When you want to go faster the most important nut to tune is the one behind the wheel.

There's always a spec weight that you can't be lower than when you come off the track. I'm light enough that I always have to add lead to make weight anyway. I am still under 140lbs, I did not focus on bulking just not being weak as fuck. I could get as heavy as 180lbs before I start being over the weight minimum without lead but being able to position lead around to change up the weight distribution is a nice tuning advantage.

Buy a go kart and start getting seat time. Proper racing go karts are faster around a track than 99% of the cars on /o/ already. That's where I started, I still race go karts when I'm not racing cars because they're so cheap in comparison. A weekend in a formula car costs me a couple grand so I can only afford to do a few per year but go karts can be anywhere from $150 for a local club race in a kart with cheap spec tires to topping out at around $500-700 for a regional race in a shifter kart. You can spend more of course but I never did the whole SKUSA supernats thing, just IKF regional stuff.

Or if you're on the East coast you might also consider a Formula Vee to race in the Challenge Cup. The cars cost about as much as a go kart and the Challenge Cup uses a street tire as a spec tire that lasts a long ass time so it's really cheap to race.

is it ever too late to do this?
i regret not starting karting when i was a young kid

i live 10 minutes away from a raceway, have never gone though
I don't have much money either but I am east coast

Probably too late to get to Formula 1 or IndyCar. Not to late to go racing. Plenty of pro sports car drivers started in their 30s and 40s even.

so you'd recommend me constantly hitting up the raceway near me, renting a kart for an hour or so and time attacking?
How do you get into the bigger racing like Formula Vee as a poor person?
