The only reason I say go with the HW is because other people at your track may be able to help you with the settings like drive frequency, brakes, etcetera.
Out of curiosity, what track are you going to? I am a new transplant to Lexington and haven't had a chance to visit any tracks yet.
Cool! You're local to me. I'm in Irvine. I was actually in Lexington over the weekend. I'm going to Hoosier HobbyPlex up in New Albany. I've been a handful of times and race Spec Slash there. I really like it, and the owners/operators are great folks.
