You're just now driving it?

Greg, my dad didn't like the really light steering feel, or the feel of the manual brakes. When he drove it he sort of complained that it took a long time to brake. In reality, I think he was only using, at most, an inch of pedal travel to make the car stop. I'm sure he'll get used to it. If not that's fine too. I can think of worse things than assuming his driving duties. Besides, about two months ago he started wondering what he was going to do after the Camaro was done. I think he's been eyeing GT40 kit cars online at work ever since .

And yes, Bondurant is an absolute blast. When they mentioned handling groups, I started thinking a 1 or 2 day pro-touring group meet would be cool. BTW, you aren't one of those guys that has taken every class there at least once, are you? Not that there is anything wrong with that. I'm trying to find an excuse to go back already.

Todd, we are just now driving it. I couldn't afford to drive it sooner and have to worry about engines falling apart and the like, while still writing checks for a couple other debugging issues Seriously though, I think Dick looks after this car like its one of his children. He probably didn't want to hand it over to either of its idiot owners before we passed Bondurant. He either woke up at 4am to take it to shows, or had it tucked away in the back of the shop under a cover, and behind cars, for the last couple months.

That's a good idea, especially if your not real handy. The race track will bring in some new variables that may need sorted. Look forward to seeing the car and you I guess.
