When I lived in San Diego in the '90s, we'd drive the Pantera to Monterey.
The following Monday we would always be invited to track day with the
Ferrari Club. Even though some of the F-cars were pretty hard driven,
the only cars that got past me were non-novice F40s. After a few years
of getting drubbed, the Ferrari owners stoped bringing their F-cars and
brought their Vipers and GT3 track Porsches instead. Sigh.
At the end of the day, jumped in the P-car (pimento color, I always ran #29,
maybe you remember Bill?) to stay over at Paso Robles prior to the
drive home on Tuesday.
