I am thinking that Jimmy will have my junk ready to go long before the docs clear me to drive...And I trust him or lonemopar if they would drive for me. My grandson,Alex also wants to try it,but I don't think he is ready! So...Do any of you guys let someonelse drive? And yes....I am bored to death!!

Always have..

Actually have never driven my car.. Not ever..



Chris..

In your case with a person that is trusted yes.

I have thought of it, but due to the wild handling from time to time it would only be someone that has gone as fast in a car similar in handling.
Ted, Like Cab Burge I must be living in a gave. Ticker giving you issues? Glad to hear you are home and waiting on approval to drive, sorry to hear you have to wait!

Jimmy and Steves cars run into the 8s..They could eat a sandwich and open a soda driving mine!! Greg...I had some blood vessles pop in my head. They got the bleeding stopped.

Yes if I know and trust them, here a few years ago Bondo Bob took mine the the Norwalk Mopar world finals while I was in the hospital, I actually offered it to him because he didn't have a ride at the time.

Yes... I have had a driver in the past... if your
grandson wants to and you think you can teach him then
go with him... slow the car down till he gets use
to it

The only problem I see Ted is if someone drove your car on its FIRST 9 second pass that might be hard to watch.

If I let someone drive my car, and I have, I assume all the risks. Therefore, if they totaled the car, it would be my fault for letting them drive and would not hold the driver responsible. If I didn't think that person could handle the car, I would not have offered it in the first place. On the other hand, I have offered others a chance to get behind the wheel, but they told me if they wrecked it, they could not afford to replace it and chose not to drive.

only someone you trust...set the limits and let er ripppppppppppppppppp

and yes, when my junk gets finished, if I ever do, I'll let someone take it down...

I have my own limits...

It's a matter of trust.
You have to be prepared to accept the fact that somebody else might damage or destroy your car whether it was their fault or not. It will all be on your nickel. Whoever you put in the seat - give them some time to get used to it.

most of the hotrodders i know have chebies,so my answer would be .NO

I offered driving my car to the guy who has helped me for the last few years. He's building his own car but I thought it would be good for him to make a few passes first. I was going to slow it down with the stop. However strapped in he could not reach the pedals and the seat is not movable. In a way I was glad but he sure was disapointed.

I have had 4-5 drivers in my car.. so yes..as long as they have driven and own thier owe car..I get [Edited by Moparts - Family Friendly Site - Keep it clean] out about this because I can drive it myself but I like to shap the fun.

I would and have had a number of people drive my car. My car is very safe and easy to drive. I have offered it up a number of times and will do so again. I have let three people get the licening passes in my car. Two people have driven it and broke it, not there fault as previously stated my dime. Next in line will be my son, hopefully before the end of the season we will get him in it and licensed.

I've driven other peoples cars, and I've let my brother drive mine. I wouldn't have a problem loaning the car out to certain people, obviously there needs to be a level of trust there. As stated, if something does break, or the car gets wrecked, I wouldn't expect payment, just as easily could happen with me in the seat.

I agree with the others, now might be a good time to slow the car down a bunch and let your grandson take it for a pass. I'd never been faster than 15.0's at 80 mph when my dad tossed me the keys to his 70 challenger. First pass was 13.0@110 walking into it, the second was 12.47@111 getting on it a little quicker. Been hooked since.

I do with people who also have cars that I would want to drive at least. My wife is welcome to but is intimidated too lol.

I've let three other people, two freinds and my Son in Law drive my cars, it gives me a chance to watch the car and learn from those passes We use to video the cars a lot when sorting them out, I go to the races alone usually now, maybe with other racers with thier cars, so I don't have anyone to run the camera now The new owner of my old Duster is a better driver than I was, according to his results Sometimes it pays to step back and watch

I've let a couple good friend's drive mine over the years, one of which I was able to add to my current insurance policy for no additional cost when we ran a few of the Pinks All out deals they just wanted to know who was driving it down the track other than me. Oh and I drove a Pontiac for someone else at Pinks as well
