Auto Racing: Starting from less than scratch...A dream, sarasota florida, personal gear

Question
I have have had a yearning to drive before i even stepped behind a wheel. Now i feel like my home is in the drivers seat. I have always wanted to have it be my career but i never have taken innitiative to race ever! Where can i go in Kansas so get some training or at least some automotive repair training that would launch me to the track?

Answer
Go to Google, find SCCA.org.  Find their address in Topeka, Go there and ask them.

Other than that, at least join SCCA, and take it from there. All the experience you could ask for , but understand , race cars areen't free, and nobody is going to loan you one, though rentals are available. You still need $1200 worth  of personal gear, a helmet, suit, gloves and such.

SCCA is a great place to start though.

Good luck
