It's just disgusting - some of the crappy stuff they make me ride around the racetrack in.
It's just sick - sick, sick, sick. Attach file: 2006-02-25 05-28-33_0004.JPG (0.00 KB) 2006-02-25 05-21-52_0001.JPG (0.00 KB) 2006-02-25 05-22-02_0002.JPG (0.00 KB) |

We also has an "Instructors Only" session.
Me ol clapped out C4 blew by a C5 and a C6, they just couldn't keep up in the corners. I also blew off 3 Miatas, one with a very good driver. And I get to do it all over again tomorrow. |

Well, the V12 does sound purrdy from inside. But the owner could only go fast on the straight, he went so slow in one corner that a guy on a Moped passed us. My other student was a Beemer M1, 135 on the straights before turning into the "S" bends. We dis spin out at about 60 though, did a one and a half spin, I laughed, he was a tad embarrassed but I told him that it was the only way to learn the limit in that particular corner. |

I have always preferred the look of the Ferrari over the Lamborghini. All nice cars, though.

I wouldn't own any of them. My bank account tells me so. I have some of the same driving skills you do Bill. They have yet to be discovered. That laugh as you were doing a 540* (360*+180*) was just your asshole pucker starting to tickle. |

Cus you haven't been on the track with me in the right.....yet. BTW, autocrossers do way better the first time out than the normal roadies (like the guy in the Lambo). |

Ha, :tongue: But I don't really care, I don't have time at the events to talk about "what's in your car", I'll leave that to the bench racers. I'm too busy jumping in and out of cars and going fast on the track. |

We have a dealership here that sells all those kinds of cars, we get one or two a week sometimes to put clear paint protection film on. Got an atomic orange McLaren recently and I'll be damned if my hairdresser texted me and said her husband bought it and sent me their photo in it. I freaked. I need to learn to do hair and see if he has a brother in business with him that's single needing a wife....

A lot of people that buy that type car are assholes. I hope I can be an asshole like that one day. I'm working on it.

90% of the ones who bring them to the track aren't. Of course, only 50% of them can drive. The other novices were grumbling about the guy in the Lambo holding them up in the corners. I told him he was going a bit slow in the corners (exaggeration) but didn't push him to go faster his car, his rules). I don't think you would be one Tommy.................anymore than usual. |
