Hard to imagine!

It's hard to imagine what it was like in the seat of that car during the race!

I took my 1962 Impala around the banked track at KC once (we were flanked by a police escort so we thankfully had to keep the MPH down low) and that was like wallowing a big tuna boat around :). Maybe I needed a few laps to get used to the side forces...

Enjoyed the article!
