Uh-oh...Chevy driving

[KBMWRS]

I had a great couple days on track not using my Chevy, but theirs.

Very cool. Looks like fun.

I keep telling my wife to get one those performance driving packages for my birthday.

I can never drive to this car's max performance.

Until you loose some pounds !

Must be quite an experience having instructors beside you telling you what to do or not .

How far did you end up from track record ??

Aside from your obvious lack of driving skills, I would attribute some of that to age. The older I get the shallower I find myself braking into corners. As the speedo climbs, I find my foot gets lighter on the gas. It's the same way I seem to have developed a fear of heights I never had when younger. It sucks but it seems to be real. We age into chickens!

Instructor is in the lead car. He drives, watches you in his mirror and handles a hand held microphone that comes through a radio in my car and the center speaker. Did get a few laps in with instructor driving and me as a passenger. That taught me just how far to go into a corner with braking. And he did it one handed. It was just fun braking and accelerating knowing this ain't my car. One has to always think about what's happening. No day dreaming. Brain fart is bad.

Same here !
In my younger days I had no problem climbing onto a TV antenna mast of 55ft high to change out the motor that turns the TV antenna.......in the middle of winter.
