    On one of the drives we had a few months back, we stopped the cars to take a break and a number of people came around to look at the car. I was in my Ford GT. I talked with a few people for a long time and eventually found out one was the ex-Sheriff of the area we were in. She has a son who really liked exotic cars and I told her I'd be happy to let him test drive the car sometime.

    We met and did that a couple months back and this last weekend, we met again so he could take my Diablo out. She is a great photographer and took a lot of great shots of the car. Her husband teaches driving and shooting. I asked "do you mean driving a car and then shooting?" Nope.. it was driving a car and shooting at the same time. Motorcycles too.. in fact, laying down a motorcycle and shooting while doing it.

    Now that class sounds like a lot of fun :)

    Would be fun :) I can imagine a track with targets on the side to plink at while avoiding obstacles. Unfortunately, I believe it's law enforcement only.

    Five: Great story and shot of your Diablo! I remember the Sheriff at the Park - good guy and a car enthusiast too.

    Hi, Five.

    Great shot -- Lambo looks great! I remember the ex-sheriff; she was on a motorcycle, and I remember that she came up to you to talk about your Ford GT. That's great that you hooked up. Great to see that you and the Lambo are well.

    Check 6.
