I know you had a good time and nice to get a little track time before you break out in your NFGT!

Bondurant is in Phoenix

The 4-day class is very good. 3rd day is pretty much "open track". 4th day is driving the little Formula Mazda cars which are a go cart on steroids and the funnest car I've ever driven (except for the Cobra).

Nothing Better

It's pretty cool to be chasing your wife driving her new Ford GT. She loves it!

Specracer - it was a blast
Apollo - I can DEFINATELY see how this can be addicting
BEEZ - sorry, I didn't take any pics the whole weekend.
I have to say the Bondurant instructors - as well as the 10 other students - were quite gracious/tolerant/respectful of my friend and I. We were on the lower end of the talent scale, yet everyone encouraged us and helped us. Very cool. And the best part - when John picked me up on Sunday, he had the driver's seat in so I could drive us home in the NFGT (the long way)!

Congratulations on getting a new Hellcat ! Charger or Challenger ?

I bought a new Charger Hellcat in late February, and it is the most fun I have ever had on 4 wheels. Being an old drag racer from the late 60's, I am more of a 0-100mph guy, than a top speed runner. With a quarter mile time of around 11.0 flat at 125mph, the 8 speed auto is always ready to downshift, and bang a few gears whenever you are.

Selling the California, and getting something whose yearly upkeep is not to keep the car running , but to keep fresh tires under her !

Did the Bondurant Schools come with your purchase ? I need to look into that.

Enjoy your new ride ! I'm still hoping to be in the final 250 GT allocations, but this will tide me over until that time comes.

Michelle, does the slip-in cupholder that fits in the old GT also fit in the new one? I'm thinking about cross-country trips with mine, if I ever get an allocation.
