'Corvette lag?' Try being a track junkie. I track my car about a couple weekends a month all year long and that
is tiring. Driving sessions for a couple days is both physically and mentally demanding especially on top of everything else you do in order to be there. There's prep work days ahead of time getting the car ready, packing everything you might need at the track, loading the car on the trailer, getting-up at 0 Dark Thirty and a couple hour drive or more to the track (for an out-of-state event you leave the day before), hanging-out in the sun running sessions all day, spend the night(s) at a motel, run sessions the next day and then load-up the car and drive home. Then it's unpack all your stuff, wash and unload the car from the trailer and get ready to start the cycle all over again.
It takes a toll on you physically and mentally and adding insult to injury it takes a toll on your wallet as well. Not even considering the hard costs of your car, modifications, truck and trailer there are the 'soft' costs for fuel, track fees, food, lodging, repairs, maintenance and having to replace expensive racing slicks at a staggering rate (you can't be competitve on old tires), etc..
I do suffer from 'Corvette lag' but the time, effort, money and fatique are well worth it....it's a blast!

Strangely, I just can't convince my wife how much fun she'd have coming with me.
