    What a great video.

    Now, that's competence—and just a nice way about him both in terms of sharing his knowledge (at speed, no less!) and the way he deals with other cars encountered. Suspect the latter says a lot about his way in the world, too.

    Wish I had met Jim in my travels…

    My condolences to his family and friends. Exceptional talent, driver and instructor. And the footwork in those videos is priceless.
