I trust him too, but he did teach me one thing at Road Atlanta: I suck as a passenger. I'm kind of a control freak when it comes to cars or any other type of "piloted" vehicle. That's why I don't fly either.

I was especially worried going around turn 12. I really wanted to have control of the vehicle when going through there.

I know what you mean... Thats what I hate about flying too... and my wife doesn't drive her vehicle when I'm in it either.... but I do love a good roller coaster, so I figure Thomas behind the wheel is as close to a 2.5 billion dollar coaster as one can get

Tom, although I was giving it pretty good when you were in the car on Saturday I was pushing really hard when I was by myself on Sunday. I find that when I have a passenger in the car I always leave a little on the table (in case I need it). I love turn 12 because it requires total commitment to it and it demands your respect. I also love braking as late as possible into 10a because if something goes wrong there you will just beach it. Plus it will be a great place to pass during races (How many of you want to go 2 wide with the crazy Canuk through the Kink at 150 MPH LOL)

I understand not wanting to be a passenger. When my Dad and I had the Boxster out at Mosport he was yelling at me to slow down when I was drive and I was doing the same when he was driving.
But when we got out we each asked, "Why were you yelling I wasn't pushing that hard?"

Matt this year for sure we will get you in the car, I think we're going to do one of the Panoz days in Road Atlanta in the spring and maybe we could hook up there.

Thomas

You guys forget that you don't need a point by during a race.......an actual race situation is a whole different ball game. I can make my car about 35ft wide if I have to.

Ask Pearson he was behind me until I drove away from him at Summit.....(with less power than he had)

EDIT:spelling
