look into your local track day or racing orgs and see about corner working. you get paid to have the best seat in the house and watch the races. you usually get a 2 way radio too so you get to hear all the work and talk going on behind the scenes.
its also a pretty good way to watch some fast guys and study the different techniques they all use for lines, body position, where they get on the brakes, where they get on the gas, how they crash, how they don't crash, etc.
