I should've started on my new headers, but I cheated on my 911...

Definitely Porsche content...I got my B&B's this week, but I went to TMS to use my birthday present instead-2 sets of laps in a 600HP "Indy" car. I hit 158.85mph in my second session at Mario Andretti Racing School. It was still all "rear engine time"! It was all good!

I have even more respect for the guys who drive @ 200+. At the mid 150's you're getting a substantial amount of lateral G-force.
This was a great experience. My wife did giood on this present.

I have driven at one these types of "schools." Oct 25, I am going to be the passenger at Fontana in the two seater. Since they won't let me get on it w/o spending a year's wages in school, I'm gonna let the shoe take me out to see for myself what 180(?) feels like (since I haven't done that on the hiways like the other thread).
