Like those f1 or sports car racing? I have thought of what I want to become when I grow up and I love cars. I don't like most of the other jobs and I saw a video of car racing.
I know I am not old enough yet but how do I start a career and how much money would I make? Also how much money do I need to start a racing career?
It would be great if you could tell me the names of all the types of races like f1 because I can search about it on the internet.



Answer
Try to get into a local go kartng club or track and go from there.
It would cost between 2-6 thousand dollars just for the kart though and theres entry fees and all that to, but if your very passionate about motor sport then give it ago (if you are good enough you will start making money so its not all bad).
As for some f1 type series there is gp2 which follows f1 and is sought of like the category below f1
There is Indy Car but that is mostly oval racing

What type of racing or career is this?

Racing where you take Porshe's, BMW's, Viper's, Maserati's, Jaguar's, Audi's, or pretty much any other German, Italian, French car or any from europe some from America oh and cars ftrom Japan compete in this racing. This racing is represented in the Gran Turismo video game series better then any other video game. Regular sports cars are converted to have more power and performance and sponsers are added. Races can be on the famous Laguna Seca Raceway, Nurburgring, or Le Mans. An example of the cars used is the BMW M3 GTR, BMW Mclaren, Dodge Viper GTS, these aren't cars that are one seated speed machines that are similer to formula one.


So what is this racing called?
What do I have to go through to become a racer in this racing?
Is it possible to become a racer from places in the Eastern U.S like is there a college I should go to or are these career path's only available in California and Asia and Europe?



Answer
The closest thing to what you want is the US Touring Car Championship -- learn more at www.ustcc.com. You become a racer in this series by getting out there and racing -- typically in the US that means karts, then midgets, and eventually onto bigger and better series. There are karting organizations in the Northeast -- just look around on the Web.
