I wish
If I were wealthy enough to be one of Ben's clients I wouldn't be driving the SBC - more like an Enzo.
That's why Ben struggles with 50 - not enough zero's for his brain to register the number.
So Uppity, fancy a trip to the 'ring

To be fair, she is driving a non-auto, non-traction controlled, non-multiple cup holder laden, non-15 litre V8 producing 102bhp car - so she might have a chance.

So Ben, you letting the LSB drive?
Or anyone else's LSB going to be driving the ring? Mine isn't going and literally can't drive (ie doesn't have a license). I asked a mate to come along instead but he said he'd only come along if he could drive mine. Oh how I laughed

If she wants to drive my car on the Ring, then I'll let her. I think she'll be too terrified to do it, but I'll make the offer, at least.
Plus, I'm comfortable enough with my experience both as driver (140 laps) and navigator (50+ laps) on the Ring to be able to coach her around the track.
If you do bring your mate along, do two things first: Get him added as a named driver to your insurance policy and - more importantly - get him to sign an indemnity that if he bends it, he mends it. Plus, you get to kick him in the balls repeatedly, free, gratis and for nothing. Until you get bored of doing it.
When my mate spun my S at the Ring, I was massively pissed off with him especially given his considerable RWD experience compared to mine. At least he was a good enough driver to a) spin at one of the safest corners to do so; b) let the spin take him onto the wide area of grass and c) brake to a controlled halt. Still felt like punching him in the face for being a tw@t, though.
We got a large round of applause from the spectators who saw him crawl out of the driver's seat, sheepishly hand me the keys and furtively slink into the passenger seat.
