Ferrari Mailing List: Re: GP Europe (Qualifying Spoiler)

Naw Larry - just woofing on the topic.  Shoot - put me in ANY F1 and I'm 
crap.

I recall sometime ago Renault let a writer FINALLY drive one of their old 
F1's.  He went to school, got all hopped up for it and after the day of his 
drive - his impression was this:
1 - NEVER in my life have accelerated that fast.
2 - The brakes are SOOO good, I would dive deeper into a corner than I have 
ever gone (think this guy was an ex-Formula Atlantic or some other pretty 
impressive open wheeled car) and would stop BEFORE the turn - then I would 
have to get back on the gas to GET to the turn so I could break again!
Wow - sez I - those F1's gotta be something from outer space.
heh heh

Of course at 6 feet 190 pounds - all I could do is stand on the seat.  I saw 
Schumacher's car at Monterey and got close up of the foot tunnel.  Damn - 
that looked like a condom for the legs
