Oooh, that car'd be stylin at an autox. Can you still break the rear tires loose with R compounds on it? Maybe Wynveen can figure out the minimum slalom distance it could make it through.

Mike -

Maybe Diane's trying to gently remind you that your anniversary is coming up, and you owe her a night out on the town (limo service included, of course).

We could always get Karen Babb to design another HPT-style course to run it on. She'd probably include another of her famous, Lotus-sized corners and name it :

"Corvette Motel" - Corvettes check in ... but they don't check out!!
