Not the prettiest girl at the Dance

[Dan Byers]

Sometimes even a 71 2.2 T-Targa that may not be the prettiest girl at the Prom can still dance given the right direction. I have been having so much fun with my 71 at the track over the last couple of years that it is starting to show on the exterior but I am ok with that because its days like this pictures depicts that are why I have owned her since my senior year in High School, just over 22 years, and she can still put the biggest smile on my ugly mug!

Stay Puff looks great to me, Dan!

She looks ready for "dancing with the stars", is that Helio practicing with her?
These gals were made to dance, just never let her lead.
Looks like you are really pushing it.
With all your track day experiances you must be getting quite accomplished at momentun racing.

Thanks guys. That picture was just sent to me from a Pelican and is from a track day this past April. I had spent the day before at Streets with a group of guys from this board (Mike, you were there) and backed that up with this day at the Big Track.

I was out this past Wednesday at the Big Track again and even though I was having some fuel delivery problems I still had a great time. Here are a couple of videos from that day of me following a few Pelicans.

Mike, I have learned that less movement in my hands while driving and staying off that pedal in the middle really makes for faster lap times! I hope someday to get you along for a ride so you can give me some much needed instruction.
