When we participated in the BMW Ultimate Driving Experience (or whatever) my wife bested my AX times by 1/2 second (on a 20-second course). Of course she's had significantly more track time (in an automatic Corvette) than I.

That said, she doesn't drive stick very well (I taught her on our Dodge 2500 about 3 years ago) and gets EXTREMELY nervous about driving the 911. The 915 is a challenge even for an experienced manual shifter. The spectre of another $2500 rebuild probably makes her even more nervous.

Finally, she's quite petite and has trouble with the clutch.

But every time she's asked, I've handed her the keys. Hell, by law she does own half the car. And it is that: just a car.

Those of you with motorcycling SOs: you don't know how lucky you are...my wife HATES the bikes. But then, I hate her horses.
