Lee, don't get your undies in a bunch! Reread my post. I just think that it is a heck of a lot cooler path for her to get her chops starting in a stick car and I think that is cool for anyone. The reality about her being a little rich girl is no different than most of the little rich boys that have done the same over time. Probably see her in a comp car with a stick soon if she can arrange it. If my daddy had her daddy's money, I would do anything! to get him to but me in one of their prostock cars and so would you I am betting! It beats having her hang out at the mall. I just think that anyone willing to go the stick route is very cool in my opinion since I race a stick and have a great time. Do the math Lee, there are only about 10% of us running stick shifts! We need more folks to realize what fun they can be. Most of the veteran racers ran stickshifts years ago. I guarantee, they busted more stuff and drove cars that were a lot harder to drive than any Jerico or Gforce car is to drive and maintain today. I am afraid that if our numbers get too small, we won't be able to maintain our class status.
To be totally honest, driving your car is probably a lot harder than the cars she is driving. I am 110% sure if I drove your car, that tranny would be out because I would miss 3rd and munch it!
