Worth it to go to the track?

Worth it to go to the track?
If you knew many on the forums that had your car & same mods - and were hitting a certain ET, would you find it worth your while (and expense) to go to the track yourself?
My car gets 11.8/11.9 with the mods I have and multiple members have hit that time with the same mods.
I'm struggling with myself to lay down the cash for Drag Radials, Helmet & Track Cost just to do it myself.
Part of me thinks it would be fun.
Part of me thinks its a waste of money, and afterwards, who's really gonna care.
Whatcha think?

really up to you.
track is fun, but i personally baby my car too much to put it through that much abuse. others are in it to check their times, practice their launch techniques, see all their hardwork put into play

Yup - just wonderig what others thought.
I think it would be fun, no doubt... but $700 for DR's, $100 Helmet, $100 for each night at the track - adds up quick! And I already know what my car gets based on others getting 11.8 / 11.9 ET's... w/ same mods.
Right now I guess I'm of the mindset that its just not worth it.

hell yeah it's worth it. not sure why DR's would be $700 cause i got my M/T et streets new shipped for $525 to the door. also not sure what track your going to but most tracks cost about $25 to run as many times as you want or can. you can also ask a buddy or somebody to borrow a helmet. if you just not that into it then i understand but it's a lot of fun and it's safer than doing it on the street.
