100% agree.
You can get in for sometimes for even $3 or $4 as newbie, and many are $9 to $12, so you can challenge yourself cheaply and go through an entire form against your competition.
Learn. Rinse. Repeat.
It is like the Poker World that was on steroids early in the mid-200s. You can play hundreds of races (compared to ultra-thousands of poker back then), on the cheap to learn for very little investment.
On line is the way to go. Multiple tracks. Multiple interest. 20 minute delays or more between races won't attract the babies that were born with a cell phone in their hand.
