I have pretty much the same indorsements. I have a certificate from the 'Top Gun' school in Aventura Fl. I also have an SCCA certifcate and love to race at NHMS as well as Lime Rock, Watkins Glen. A special treat was an SCCA sanctioned race at Trois-Rivières a number of years ago. The French Canadians are a crazy bunch!

I am in full support of on-hands testing regardless of vehicles or whether you are renting for a day or driving for fun.
