To Open Track!

She ran NASA HPDE 1/2 today and wants to continue. I see another car in our future! Reconfirmation that I chose the right woman.

She pulled off 1:52 at Willow Springs. Not bad for rookie. Brent, if you read this... yes, I confirmed hotlap counter with video! Time stands. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

A$$holes . . . you're all a$$holes. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

My wife absolutely hates that I race. She doesn't understand why my car has to be so loud - why it has to be so stiff - why it has to make those sounds (creaks, groans, etc.). Every month, we go through about a 2 day dance of "Will she 'let' me race this month". She just took her first ride last week in 2 years of me doing this. And it wasn't even with me - it was with a friend in a S2000!! (Actually, that was probably smart. She's seen how on the edge I drive. But, I beat him by over a half second!) she doesn't understand why I have to spend $70 on oil, then change it myself, when she gets hers done for her for about $20.

But, I married her before I got really into this. And, that's about the only thing that I would change about us. At the end of the day, I'd rather us disagree on this, than on something that REALLY mattered.

Funny part is, she used to drive a little 4-cyl Laser when we were dating. When I'd follow her, she'd pull out and floor it. She took corners faster than I did. I keep trying to tell her that she would actually make a pretty good driver, if she tried. But, she just won't get into it. Oh well!
