All those little things add up and I'm thankful (embarrassed at the time) that I had the chance to learn the way I did.

I'd have hated to do something like that out in town.

Not that anybody drives like that on public roads of course......

You are absolutely right Ivan. To this day, I am still most impressed by how you handled everything, and you definitely made an omelet out of broken eggs!!! It was also much better if something happens, that it be at the track, because we all know that nobody drives like that on the streets.


It really was an Awesome day at the track, but we didn't take any pictures because it was just myself Howard, a vette, and a couple miatas. It was a great day to practice your techniques due to the light turnout. I actually got to drive one of the miatas which really was a blast!! Between that and and awesome ride along in the Vette, it really gave me a new perspective on the line in a couple areas, so my last 2 sessions were really awesome, and I finally broke 100mph on the back straight.


I want to wish Andre a HUGE HAPPY BIRTHDAY from D&d!!!!!!!!
