Paralized newbie drives HIGH TECH Corvette
I am glad I talked these guys into getting me into a race car again after totally breaking my spine and stretching it thin like a thread. But... I never expected this incredible, VERY, Very Expensive Corvette World Challenge Style Corvette. Now for the cool and unique part. No one has successfully hooked up a manual transmission, figure out a start and stop and shifting Clutch? How'd they do it. An electric eye sees my hand grabbing the shift lever, pulls it out of gear... as I take my away (off shift lever)... the motor comes back in and helps brake car. Starting and Stopping: Starting slow... I take my hand away slowly and far out from the lever slowly. If I want a fast start... Put it in gear, grab some go peddle (or Ring) in my case, and pull my hand away from the Shifts lever fast.... Zoom... IM gone! Hope to meet some of you as we tour the car and meet and greets. The 1 Hour Documentary is in the works. Filming done... (thank God or??) now its in editing... then I hope to raise funds for those injured specifically in Motorsports. (SCI) have soared last few years.. with ATV, Motorcycles, etc. See Ya Soon, Mike

Safety Car
Our club has a serious autocrosser that is paralyzed from the waist down and uses hand controls on a C6. He can come to the track late with no course walk and run times that are close to FTD.
He is fantastic and a super nice guy!
