Last week I let my Missus follow me round the Nurburgring in my GT2

I was driving my friends GT3 RS and she has been on for ages to drive round on her own
I tried everything to put her off but she was very insistent, I had visions of a huge uninsured off but no she drove well and then had the cheek to say I could have speeded up in certain sections !!

She thought going up the hill at Kesselchen the best bit and couldnt believe how hard you have to fight with the steering wheel in the Karussell

Brave or what !!!

That day we saw the new 997 GT2 in silver It looked amazing with so much road presence ,more so than the 997 turbo

We passed the new Porsche Panamerica heavily disguised then overtook an Audi R8
then to finish the day off there were 2 new BMW M3s in the hotel carpark

She didnt like the motorbikes overtaking

I gave a huge sigh of relief when she came out of Dottinger-Hohe onto the main straight

That is brave. My (now ex) missus once had a driving instuctor say "I think you better find a new instructor from now on" so there was about as much chance of me letting her drive my car as there was of her setting a new lap record.

My girly doesn't like driving mine (clutch, gears, no heated seats) but the last time she did she got a speeding ticket!cop I got the blame of course - my leg was in plaster and I had insisted she take me out for a spin. argue

She sounds as nuts as you Tim!

I was cautious about letting the missus take the footpump out of the boot in the GT3 today while I was at work....

Was you in the Yellow GT2 ? (following a Red Clio on the way back to the boat)

Excellent Timbo.

When I instructed at the Brands race school I found women were - on balance -
better pupils. They listened - unlike most men who thought that they were better than me to start with - and were smooth.

I cannot understand why men have such a downer on women drivers.
