From personal experience I have to agree with this 100% - I belong to the Trillium chapter of the BMW club (no BMW for me though) and we have an advanced driving school at Mosport 3 times a year. I joined because ever since seeing Jackie Steward win the F1 there I've dreamed about driving Mosport - but anyway, back OT.
There are some incredible machines at these events (including a number of Porsche) and some extremely weatlhy people from all over NA - I never hear them talk about the cost of their vehicles and they have always been very respectful of my Focus and its abilities.
