1. Try autocrossing. It keeps you in the seat and motivated. I call it "low impact motorsports".

2. Find someone to help you, even if they are clueless and all thumbs.

3. Bribes with alcohol and pizza work well.

4. Find someone rich to sponsor you.

5. I don't know how a young cute Wife/girlfriend would help you, you would be too busy doing "other things" to want to go racing. Matter of fact, you'll want to start doing things S L O W L Y, if you know what I mean.

I'm trying to get back into this after 10 years. Just cant get the motivation to buy a car, because I KNOW what I'm up against.
