The track insurance is the real downer at the moment, but if you do it a lot it becomes less of an issue.. I've estimated about $12k to $15k a year in costs to make it an every month hobby. (Insurance, lodging, consumables, and maintenance?)

Not cheap, I agree. The track most local to me is about 2 hours away, so I have to add hotel expense (or wake up at the butt crack of dawn).
I'll say all thoughts of money and inconvenience went out the window when I was on the track. I had a blast doing it and I'm looking forward to the next event.
