Decking complete. Still need to add steps, railings, side trim, and landscaping...and not necessarily in that order.



You can see my dog's fuzzy butt and tail in the window if you look closely.

Looks nice but too expensive for me to do decking that way, at best I'd have to cut the planks leangth wise to make 2 out of 1.

From my limited track experience, I've come to the conclusion that it's not the car, it's the driver.

I was passing Vettes, Vipers and even 1 Ferrari at my track days.

Put me in that Aventador and Sebastian Vettel in the 370Z and he's gonna smoke me every time.

I agree Mark
I too have run down many a high powered high buck car in the twisties only to get spanked when the track straightened out and the right foot went back down on (at least) twice as many ponies.
Appears that the Z in the vid was on par if the one long straight was not there

Both the Z and Aventador were instructors. The Aventador guy was handing out rides to people in his passenger seat from the description of the video on YouTube. Each run with a passenger was 3 laps.

Intent of posting was to impress that it is not the size of the dog, but the size of the fight in the dog. Thanks for reaffirming that.
