That's okay with me. Let's look at the big picture instead. We have a traffic system in dire need of synchronization, big rigs that could benefit tremendously from minor aero tweaks, and people still commuting to work 5 days/wk for desk jobs that could be done at home.
You going to the track on the weekend? Negligible. Your entertainment is your own expense, and it has value to you. Let's just focus on what I like to call 'pure waste.' That it, fuel consumed with zero benefit (or even drawbacks).
