Lincoln LS's actually are pretty well handling cars....

I spent roughly 3 hours one day as the designated driver of a Cayenne on track. Had a great time with 3 other people in the truck with one guy leaning out the back window and taking pictures as we passed people at 100+ down the front straight.
For the safety nuts, I did not know he was taking pictures or leaning out the window. We did get a black flag and when I found out why, I threw the guy out of the car.

Would anyone be up for spec Crown Victoria? I'd be down, cage up some old police cruisers at 3 grand a pop....

Actually, Crown Vic Police Interceptor cars (P71 package) handle quite well for what they are, much better than that Mercury.

The BSR team at Summit Point do a LOT of protective service driving training, lagely in Caprices. Its a real kick to see what some of the BRS instructors can do with those babies. Impressive!

Great video, and now extra funny knowing that Pete T was instructing.

I still haven't figured out how to add a picture, but I took some pictures of that car leaving tire steaks at the bottom of 14a. I actually had one of them as my avatar for a couple of weeks. What a hoot to watch that run around Barber. Mr B probably wouldnt appreciate the landscaping work though

For my first SCCA school I took my wife's Jag S-type to Daytona because she wanted my DD for shopping. My instructor brought his 18 wheeler full of SRFs and asked if anyone had a car we could use for a ride along. I had to volunteer. :D

I used my Rental Lincoln Town Car at Bondurant for drift practice. It takes 50 lbs. of air in the front tires, but works. AS

Ahh, well, no actually....

Actually, Pete T. was instructing in the Gran Marques pictured at Watkins Glen in T-9 on Memorial Day. The video was of a very similar car at Barber.

Mmm.....k. Since I've only had a few thousand miles on this racetrack, and since I was putting along at about half effort to film the Marquis, I would *love* for you to fill me in on how exactly his line-- which I was following anyway-- is "much better", and how I can improve my following-a-4-passenger-sedan-for-the-purpose-of-filming line next time.

Psssh...

You guys are having WAAAAYYY too much fun.

Haha.. Thats funny,

I was behind an Ex Police Crown Vic when it spun in front of me in turn 8 at willowsprings.

Didn't have the camera mount then, Video would have been great!!

I know. I instruct for them sometimes... ;)
