LOL - no sisters Superman. It wouldn't be fair that TWO men had to spend all of their lives sleeping with one eye open in fear! Dad's SS will be delivered Father's day weekend. I'll post on Pelican when it gets close.
Many fine years ago, a bunch of us used to autocross every weekend. It's a real twisty high speed course and you will shift 2nd and 3rd regularly, short geared car's going find forth if it's a quick beast. There was a real cool guy who drove an IROC Z-28 (like an 85?) with a 5 speed. The guy only had one hand. His LEFT hand. I'm telling you, I rode with him a couple of times - that guy flat out could
drive. No special equipment... One or the other knee would hold the steering while while he reached across his body and grabbed the next gear.
Double-clutch, the whole thing.
The guy had SKILLS!
