Learning to Autocross...

When my mother-in-law died, I watched my husband go a little nuts. Mourning would be expected; he lost his mother. Instead, he seemed energized. He went on a spending spree and bought all the camera equipment he ever longed for, he took vacations he dreamed about, and he bought a Porsche. Now that I think about it, he did his own year of celebration without the elation I’m feeling.
The first time he took the Porsche to my parents, my dad said, “So where did you get Ben’s car?” It seems Dad knew the original owner of the car. A few days later, Ben’s wife called me at work to congratulate my husband on getting her husband’s Girlfriend. I loved it. It’s been His Girlfriend ever since, but it means I don’t drive it much. It just seems wrong to take my husband’s Girlfriend for a test drive. This year, however, we girls need to get together and spend some time getting to know each other. What better way than to spend some days together at the races?
Now I would love to take her to Vegas for the PCA Driver Education, but that’s a bit outside my budget this year. So, I’ll plan on doing Autocross races sponsored by the local Porsche club.
We’ll try to get some video for y’all.
