Depends on how bad your driving record is. If you only have the otehr reckless from 2 years ago, you will probably just end up with a fine. Also depends on why you got the reckless? I have to do 2 weekends for a reckless, but I was clocked doing 104mph.

Definately take the class. I took the class before going to court for my reckless ticket, so instead of them taking away my license or anything worse, they saw that I already took the class, and that I showed initiative, and just gave me a little community service. It will never hurt to do that.

If you don't get a lawyer, I would say you are looking at at least 3 days in jail.

It's never too late to get a lawyer. You can ask for a continuance, and I'd imagine the judge would say something about how you waited to the last minute to get a lawyer, instead of acting responsibly and getting counsel sooner, but he/she would probably grant it the first time.

My lawyer got my case continued three times.

Don't tell the judge you waited til the last minute, tell him you need one more paycheck before you could afford your lawyer.
