This was my third PDX (performance driving experience) at the Gateway Intl. Speedway and my most beneficial and enjoyable one yet. I was in the Novice group again and had the same instructor as a year ago. I rode with him during his track time and was able to get a much better understanding of the line he wanted me to take. It was incredible fun with seven, 20-minute runs, cool weather and no mechanical problems for me this time. If any of you have an interest, I highly recommend doing at least one of these events. It's the only place I have to safely drive my G as hard as I want. I got much faster and smoother as the day progressed and can't wait to get back for the next one.

This is the Viper that hit the wall last time. His driver's side looked worse than the Cobalt's above^ and he said it was $30k to repair (ouch!).















The black CTS-V Caddy was a BEAST
