Well I feel bad that I dirtied my precious Z like that due to my inexperience on the track and thus have some regret. Overall I think I had a good experience and it helped me learn more about my car but I just don't like seeing my Z in that state. It just bugs me.

Man...you have reason to be bummed about getting the interior of your car trashed. Whether it's a dedicated track car or not...you should still take care of your things. It's nice to see that people take care of their things...especially on something as expensive as a car.

Thumbs up

It's a tough interior, it can take some sand. We have sand here, others have walls, grass, and mud. Your lesson hits home because of the dirt, fortunately DIRT DON'T HURT!

Have your rims checked for trueness and repaired at WRS if there's ANY wobble after you get tires on (tire guys can even spin and feel for bends).

EDIT: post that video so we can point and laugh-- I mean help you learn!
