I have to say I agree. Club liability is at risk if an unfortunate event sh=
ould occur being as how it's a club sponsered event. I used to like driving=
 fast but I don't trust myself as much as I once did. I really don't trust =
oncoming traffic at all. Too much to lose.

Too fast on an official WPTA event is anything over the posted speed limit.=
 Period.

How Fast is Too Fast?



As the =93unofficial=94 Risk Manager of the WPTA (and leader of the Wolfpac=
k), we have had a pristine record over the past 23 years that I have been i=
nvolved with the Club.



So, my question of the day is: How Fast is Too Fast?



Let=92s remember that although I do drive at a =93brisk pace=94, I know whe=
n it=92s too fast for conditions.



It was recently brought to my attention of WPTA vehicles reaching speeds of=
 81 miles per hour on a recent back roads tour. Remember that a lot of thes=
e roads are 2 lane sweepers and blind bends. Shear disaster can always be w=
aiting around the next corner.



So, here=92s the story of the day: =93When my son received his driver's lic=
ense, I had a conversation involving thinking with the big head and not the=
 little head=94.



So, let=92s try to drive Responsibly!
