Cool stuff Steve!.
Any English roots and British cars in your family history?.

I'm through two of the six kids driving so far and laid stick cars on them within the first few drives..
After a few stalling starts and rough shifts they get onto things quickly!.

Oh, what fond memories that brings back. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/crazy.gif[/img] When it was time for my twinkies to start driving, (they're 30 now) only one of them attempted to drive my three on the tree Silverado. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img] That didn't go well and opened the door for my first truck with an automatic.

Needless to say, boys are different. Never say &quot; gas it up a little&quot;.



Good Luck Steve!! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Small world...my 14 yr old daughter got a dose of driving lessons just last week. It wasn't in anything cool (a 496 Suburban and then a Duramax dually!), but still a lesson. She's started talking about jobs &amp; car payments, but she's apparently inherited the muscle car gene, because she keeps mentioning new Camaros &amp; new Mustangs...

That's funny Rick, it was only the third or forth time driving the Chevelle.

After two months he was catching a little rubber in second [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/[/img]
