My brother and I take my dad to midohio sports car course every year for the vintage races....this year I wanted to take the charger....well it was british car day there so I stuck out like a stripper in church....I got a lot of attention and questions everytime I went up to the car to get something....could have been that I parked with the mini coopers  ;).....anyway...they have a "parade lap" at lunch were you can take a few laps around the track...well you are suppose to drive like a 80 year old on sunday but, the mini guys figured out that if you get in the middle of the pack and leave enough space you can have a good time....anyway I followed my brother in his minirat so we had fun....I did find out that if you pick the wrong line, are going too fast, and in a charger you cant take the curve out of the "S"s....I almost spun out.....after all the tire squeeling and praying I got it straightened out...my dad looks at me and says "well I dont really know what they would do if you spun out"  we laughed.....anyway here are some pics of the weekend....

Cool!  We had a good time at Indy last year doing a parade lap with the wing cars during the Brickyard 400.  However they didn't let us have any "fun".  They limited us to 35mph.....
13.53 @ 105.32

they try  ;).....the pace cars go around at 35 mph but there are sooo many cars you can sit back and let them get ahead of you....big gaps = "moments" of fun...the fastest I got up to was 55 mph....unfortunately it was coming into the turn where I almost lost it :slap:
