Hey J, here in the LFS community we have all kinds of drivers, fast, slow, not so slow and not so fast. We also have all kinds of leagues and a wide spectrum of teams.
We have from the young and reckless whippersnappers to the old and conservative grandpas. The best thing is that you can choose what group you want to fit in.
My advice would be: buy it. Buy the license that way you can form your own opinion instead of relying on others to tell you their views. Then when you get to be old and gray like some of us, you can truly say: "I did it".
I have to say, when you joined the LRF server yesterday I expected you to struggle. I was pleasantly surprised when you actually knew what you were doing.
