BIR Track Day Compliment


Recommended Posts

Had to tell this story as I believe this group will understand:

 

At a Track Day at Brainerd International Raceway on Monday for my first session I had a British Instructor ride along. When Chris was strapping himself in he shared with me that one of his first cars was a Lotus 7 and that he had actually purchased it from Graham Nearn, we talked a little about the differences between the original and the modern day Caterham and then went out for a few laps. After two 5 lap sessions Chris asked if he could drive the car so that I could watch his footwork in two of the corners. (A little advice to all practice heel-toe braking and double clutch downshifting - it's a whole new level of performance).

 

To finish the story - as we finish with Chris driving and we are pulling off our helmets Chris, with a huge grin on his face, says: "Man, that brings back memories..............mine was sh**" !!!!! :hurray:
