I spent seven years racing Formula Vees (with an excursion into Formula Ford and Formula 440) and what Tiff was demonstrating is NOT the fast way through a corner.

As for Hitlary, if she ever achieves a position of power she will make Stalin look like a great humanitarian.

The fastest way generally isn't that entertaining, at least not for the viewer.

Welcome brother, I started in FV in 1975 and moved to Super Vee SCCA Region 19. Now I'm running the Crossfire in SCCA T3 and NASA TTD. I'm too old for open wheelers anymore. I loved those old VW powered formula cars... Was a great way to learn when I was 17...
