That would be a home run in auto media.
No publication has yet to run a GT500PP with a pro driver like Randy all out at Laguna Secca. It would be epic to see them same track, same day, same pro driver for an intense battle.  Maybe do a tour of popular US track with the duo like most owners do. |
I'd pitch in some cash on that idea, in all honesty though.. I think Randy still has some left in him when he's driving for Motor Trend... I mean, he gives a verbal tutorial while driving. That's a difficult task to drive like that and focus on something other than the driving. When I do some spirited driving and my wife ask ridiculous questions or the usual nonsense I either:
a.) Slow down and shut off my selective hearing.
b.) Keep driving until she sounds like Charlie Browns' teacher.
or
c.) Try to do both and not be very good at either driving or communicating.
Just my 2 cents, but I think its possible that he has quite a bit more in him.... but Randy is no Stig... Randy is way better....
