In all fairness to her she makes more money than I do and in about a year when she finishes her masters and becomes a nurse practicioner she will be making really good money. She told me that she would buy me a new Vette when she gets that but I could not wait. As long as she is careful and does not get hurt I am cool with it. Cars can be replaced, people cant. <Just in case she reads this>
Find a happy place, find a happy place. She will not kill my baby. She will not kill my baby.

I wonder if she'll let the 14 year old get behind the wheel? http://temp.corvetteforum.net/c5/esc...//drivings.gif

You could always get a GPS tracking system put in the car and watch realtime where the car is, speed, direction etc..
Nah... then you'd go crazy when she got up to 100mph or so.
I wouldn't worry unless she wanted to go out a night WITHOUT the 14y/o.

Ah, I don't know what to say, but I feel for you man - Put the baby to sleep, have a few more beers and go to bed yourself and get a good sleep - it's the only thing you can do at this point.

Yes I suspect this is the start of them driving the Vette. Maybe it will be a good reason to get the wife one.

Do like i did and have a twin turbo setup installed and tell her that it has so much power that you think for her safety she shouldn't drive it...that's what i did. Then again when i put the Hurst shifter in she hated that also.
