Okay, of course I will let him. Just not alone!

Needless to say she agreed. The whole time she was driving, I kept telling her, you can drive a bit faster. The look on her face was priceless. Oh, and my son, who's bugged me all along to drive the car, has yet to drive it. Oh well, his time will come.

That is what shifting in the GT3 in full anger mode sounds like. It sounds like Le Mans. Some very happy memories for my wife and myself, except this time we are inside a car, and that is what the sound always brings to mind.
