Steve,
I have agreed with you all along and something really needs to be done to drive home the point that a light car and huge horsepower plus no experience is really not impressing many knowledgeable people. I have watched a couple of people that I know do big burn outs at places where they should not be doing that kind of stuff and then had the on-lookers laugh at me because I left in a sane manner. I just tell them my car won't burn the tires and ignore the insults. I am still trying to get a friend to go to the track if our weather ever gets nice and go through the high performance driving school. I told him I would go with him and go through it again too. I like to do that any way so it is no big problem with me going. I am going to do it again even if he won't go. I just hate to read about anyone getting killed or hurt in a Cobra or any other car through some mistake that could have been avoided. On the other hand I have done so many dumb things when I was younger maybe that is why it makes such an impression on me.
Ron
