At Indy Goodguys last weekend they coaxed the local newscaster into riding along in our 33 ford for a live feed. You can hear him screaming like a little girl and his face is priceless at the end.

Bahahahaha! I would have enjoyed that spin-out so much. I would have told the guy, "Just start doing donuts!"

I've heard that some people just riding along acually throw up when they get out of the car.

I gave some rides to my drag racer buddy and to his wife and daughter [ 3 seperate rides ] at the recent Monster Mopar Indy event. They came away with a fresh perspective. Mitch Lelito gave my buddy a ride in his much more race oriented Challenger as well. Mitch's ride really impressed him. His wife told me that it sure looked different looking out the windshield than it did from watching from the outside. I asked their pre teen daughter if it was kind of like a carnival ride. She said it was worse. I take that as a compliment.

It didn't even look like that 'bad' of a ride. Fairly smooth even.

Don't just ride along, anticipate the turns and 'lean' into them.

Many years back I took a one day road race driving school at the old Sportatorium Miami race track. There were a couple budding sport car racers as instructors, and they first suited us up and took us on an orientation ride around the course. I remember when I first strapped in how um-impressed I was as to how rusty and in poor shape the roll cage was on the passenger side. First turn, inches away from the guardrail, at around 100mph, I quickly found out how sweaty hands wreak havoc on painted roll bars.


Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

Gimme a ride? I never did finish getting my license after I got laid off back in '73 for 2 1/2 years. When I went back to work I bought a Ramcharger, then a boat instead.

I remember you & your car. Very nice. Better tires would make quite a difference.
