E ticket ride for sure..

I've gotten better at driving the Mustang... and frankly a couple changes in alignment really made a big improvement.

The Lotus --- that was a greasy POS... I was not able to get any laps in at Laguna because I was letting my son drive it... so I have no idea if it was improved or not. I'm hoping that Brian will take it to the track and give me some feedback once he has it all back together.

Personally --- I think that's part of the fun of track days -- driving the old stuff with all it's foibles... skinny little tires -- too much power for the tires etc... I know a lot of guys are all about their track times --- whereas I'm just enjoying the seat time.

I agree. It's all about the fun in the seat.

I'm with ya here. Plus there are soooo many late model Vettes out on track days. Get lost in the shuffle there.

It's fun to try to make these old junkers do something nice and keep up with those Vettes.
