Age of those active in HPDE / Track Events

I am 22 and definitely not a geezer; I still do everything I used to do, Mountain bike, motocross (not racing), jet ski, etc. There is a great chance I will slam one day and never walk right for the rest of my life but until then I'll keep shredding. Lifes too short

I was just curious how his was holding up. Glad to hear you won't need another one Rusty. I am pretty sure I will need a second surgery one day. It takes some gnarly slams though, there has been a few times I though for sure I broke it but it was fine.

/thread jack over, sorry!

I have been tracking my 2013 NISMO for about 2+ years. All in HPDE events in Texas. I'm 68 and hope I'm still doing this in 10 years. My car continues to be a work in progress and becoming less and less streetable (still street legal, just not that comfortable with racing seats, 6 point harness, etc). The driver is also a work in progress. I have definitely improved; car handling, track awareness, confidence, but think,I still can improve a lot more. Probably the best thing about going to the track is the absolutely fantastic people I have met and friends I have made. Although going up the hill on the front straight of COTA to turn 1 still gives me goose bumps.
