His expertise is invaluable. My goal was to make both cars "more fun" to drive. These are TRACK DAYS not races.... and I just want to go out and enjoy the experience.. hang with my buddies... pass some slow guys if I can... dice a bit with the guys I can run with. Ron's knowledge and experience has made my track time so much more fun that I can hardly stand it. He teaches me why this or that is happening -- what to think about -- how to drive differently -- how to calm down... so it's a complete package deal for me.
I didn't want to just "patch" the existing car. I wanted a completely fresh examination of what it WAS and then what could be better. The car exceeded my wildest expectations. I can't wait to get it back on the track.

In the drivers meetings they always talk about getting the checkered flag -- and what that means -- they point out that the checkered flag means you get to go back to the pits and take 10 seconds off your lap times and lie about how many people you passed. I never realized that Gaetano had run with this group so many times that they adapted their speech around him.
