I know exactly what you mean! I have met so many nice people in racing. I started out doing car shows first and only doing racing on the side.
My favorite part of the car shows was meeting new people. Oh yeah, you can strike up a conversation with anyone at a car show and end up talking for hours on end. It's really strange, but really nice! I have met so many nice people by just talking about cars.
Same with racing, Fun Ford and NMRA attract very nice people who love to learn about racing and cars. It's always fun to talk to people and make new friends. They are the friendliest around!!
