Yeah though with some of those crashes it depends on the model Corvette as much as the joker at the wheel. Some of the older vettes handled like a shopping cart with a V8 strapped to it. I'm going to put the blame for the Ferrari crash in the lap of the so called "driver".

For a while the new C8 Vette was calling my name. Love the mid-engine setup and it sure as hell doesn't look like your typical Corvette either. Has a more.... Italian look to it?

Good instruction from a talented driver can definitely help but you're right, there has to be some skill base to build on.

So much power with the "nannies" turned off. That must be why they (reportedly ) are trying to force some studying how to drive your new toy once you've bought it.

@unluky

I was working on a flat roof in Boston, the head of the association (deciding owner) was on the roof with me

Owner: what can you do with this roof opening and lid? It's likely 1970's "Roof hatch" me: I will defiantly "mcgiver" something there

Owner: lost look in his eyes, what does "mcgiver" mean?!?

Me: I'll get some spare lumber to frame it better and make a lid with remaining roof membrane with some hooks attached for a snug fit, it'll take me an hour, no additional cost


Owner had no clue what the term "mcgivering" a problem meant, I felt so old

Indeed, and talented instructor helps, but you need more than a few days to get good. It's like peeling an onion. You get better layer, after layer after layer. And that takes time and commitment. And good instruction.

That's how I learned! And just 2 weeks ago I managed 3 Nurburgring Nordschleife laps under 8 minutes, with the fastest being 7:52.4. Life goal was 7:55. Next life goal 7:47

Great idea, the younger one can learn how to handle a car at the limit the better. Great of you to give your son a chance while he's young!

And then go across the road to Ridgeline Training Center to get some quality firearms training.

It's not, but it seemed to be an appropriate reply to the Pista that went off the road, which also arguably isn't LOL.
