Celebrating the 100th Le Mans 24 Hour

 Celebrating the 100th Le Mans 24 hour race. The centenary edition won by Ferrari in their first Le Mans victory in 58 years. Corvette took the LM class in the factory teams last race.

Todays image is a tribute to western Pennsylvania racing legend Don Yenko. Don entered endurance races in the late '60s with a Corvette he took off the showroom floor of his car dealership and modified.

Yenko tweaked Corvettes, Camaro's and Vega's are still highly sought after performance cars.

Driving Fast is an Art

 Driving fast is an art, not everyone is an artist.

Driving fast is an art. Some drivers make it look easy- Fangio, Clark, Schumacher, Senna. Their artistry is undeniable. Most struggle to keep up and most freeway warriors are clueless- unable to master even the basics of car control. In the words of our protagonist- "Having a fast car doesn't make you a fast driver. You're still a slow driver, in a fast car."

So take it to the track folks. There is likely a track day or driving class being held near you.
