Default Learn your car

Yesterday I spent the day @ Homestead Race Track with Henry Gilbert's
"Hooked on Driving". There were about 40 cars and drivers there, Mostly
Corvettes, many Zo6, a few C6's even Ferrari a 911, 2 Cobras, and an assortment of other performance cars. In no uncertain terms this will surprise and convince you that none of us have any idea how great these Corvetts are. It is a whole new experience driveing under these conditions, you will spend
2.5 hours on the track running your car full out, forget all that you have learned since the first time you got behind the wheel of a car, this is the meaning of the word "car control", oh yes, also forget about what the drivers education teacher told you, get in a Corvette with one of Henry's instructors and learn what fast is all about.
All I can say is "you have to do this". I found out about this on the web,
the site is www.hookedondriving.com
