I can find other things to do, more fun and a hell of a lot less money, than Class Racing.
Sorry if this is a grim scenario, but it is better to know the time, money and effort required beforehand.

No truer words were ever spoken on the subject. Calculate the total amount of time spent in the car on the track vs. the $$ (in dollars AND time) spent to get there, and that will pretty much answer the original question. In my experience, a very large number of class racers are motivated more by the social aspect of the events than the actual racing.
