This car is two years newer than mine - great ride along! You Hillclimb folks are nuts! Talking about submarining an Armco barrier... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
PS: I saw Bob Saville's car on the return line...looks fun and scary fast. T https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDH17AU3xJ0 Saville - Good job, Bob! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EC36Maqg1ds |

Regarding sunglasses and visors...wear them and keep it down!!!
A couple years ago, I flipped up my visor on the cool down lap (with glasses on) - a GT3 was roughly 100 yards in front of me. I felt something "go into" my left eye 2/3 through the lap. Nearly the worst experience physically in my life. I thought it might "work its way out" - not! Five days later I was in the hospital having that piece of carbon pulled out of my cornea. It was totally debilitating, trust me! Wear glasses and keep the visor down until you shut down. Beyond the benefits of vision is actually keeping it! Thanks for the reminder Randal...as an aside.
