>go to a regulated track and drive

Ugh, what a stupid comment. Yeah sure, let me not only have 1 car, but now 2 cars, a trailer to legally transport the manual car. Then go on a boring as hell, flat, circle. This is not at all the same as say driving around a mountainous region, or along the coast. You can go fuck yourself with your regulated "track".

Yeah, the ownership and riding of a horse is now restricted to the privileged. Not exactly a shining example to use.

Yeah, the expensive hobby isn't mandatory for everybody anymore, in fact it is banned on public roads, and the better alternative is readily available for people who don't want to shell out the cash for the quaint older method. What is the problem here?

Not "getting" driving for enjoyment is not the same as stupidity, and you (the supporters of the association's goals) will have to convince a lot of people who don't get it.

This is not a good approach.

No personal attacks like this, please!
