*Great* day, even if it was cut short for me when I blew a tire. Thanks heaps to Bob and Arrwin for organizing, and to everyone who pitched in to get me back on the road (especially Rick - an absolute legend). We made it to Mavis, who were able to sort us out with a new tire--although it took about five hours to have it shipped

Anyway, thanks again!

Suzi had a great time, dispite a few moments of holy****holy****holy****......I've learned just to dial it back a notch and keep her riding shotgun with me! I'm a lucky guy for sure!

Mark I'll get a few good pics out to you tomorrow !

Riding in the passenger seat is a whole different ballgame. I never could have done that drive sitting on the right.

That being said, I want to thank everyone for driving in a relatively safe manner throughout the day. It was good to know that pretty much everyone out there held their own. This was one of the few drives I've been on where the course was exciting and I still managed to stay relaxed at the wheel and avoid any white knucle moments.

That also being said, this was also the first time I almost got sick in the driver's seat. The first set of quick left and right curves after the bridge gave my stomach a run for the money

That's awesome, now I know how to plan future runs! Now if you had a P car that wouldn't be an issue...

Great video chuck
I am lucky, she was pretty nervous though when I was in the wrong lane from taking a turn to wide, much faster pace then I am accustom to.
Glad you like all the pics

That's pretty funny, Bob. It has more to do with my stomach than the car, though. You'd be surprised how drama-free it was inside. You have an open invitation to come take it out for a drive any time you'd like.

I was kidding of course and would LOVE to drive your car.
BTW, that video of you passing the taxi was awesome!

Bob, I'm serious. I know you have a high level of proficiency and would love to hear your opinion of it. Plus it's just plain fun to drive!

Bob, Arrwin, Ilko.... you guys got these drives down. Total pros. Great to see you guys again... it has been way to long and this was the perfect way to meet up again. Hopefully We'll meet up in South Jersey doing the Lightning, Thunderbolt course this summer.
