[QUOTE="TroyV, post: 10377251, member: 28469"] Corvettes p i s s me off. They are so easy to go fast in. I was at Mont Tremblant last summer for the annual COMSCC Time Trial event there. I was assigned two students, a father and son team sharing a C5 Z-06. No mods....just some track pads, and NT-01's.. Niether of them had ever been to Tremblant before, so they asked if I'd drive the car around for them for their first few laps.....you know....show them the line, the flagging stations, what to look for, and where the tricky sections are. Anything sub 2:00 is a pretty quick lap at Tremblant. I ran 1:54 (leaving nothing on the table) with my Cobra some years back, and in the Miata this time, I was running very close to 2:00.....2:01's.. The Lap record for my class is 2:03.. I swear I was just putting around, and was putting in 1:58-1:59 laps in that Corvette driving the Miata's lines, and taking my hand off the wheel momentarily to point out where the flag stations were to my students. There was no urgency, no adrenalin, just a few recon laps... Then I get back into my car and bust my arse to make 2:01-2:03's.. I'm pretty sure I could have easily run quicker laps than my Cobra's times with a just a little bit of seat time and purpose. [/QUOTE]
