I'll try to post some pictures next week but if you do it do nothing less than the 4 day Grand Prix Road Racing class. The first 3 days are in Corvettes, which are nice cars but have too many helpers - ABS, traction and stability control so while you can figure out what you did to get the Nanny to help, you don't get to do anything to react to whatever might have happened (usually, oversteer events).

The last day is in these awesome little Mazda Forumla cars.



Non Nanny helpers here, and definitely more applicable to the Cobra (and probably the FGT too, according to one of the instructors.)

The biggest thrill was a hot lap with Bob Bondurant in his ZR1. The ZR1 is miles above the Vettes we drove in speed and handling, and the driver topped it all off...
