IT'S a special moment for every race driver. You tighten the belts, flip down your visor and -- quietly, in the privacy of your full-face helmet -- say the Shepard's Prayer. That's Alan Shepard, the astronaut: "Please, Lord, don't let me screw up." Actually, I'm paraphrasing.

I flew out to road america in elkhart lake, wi in 8/07 to do the lrs f1 experience, but got rained out after barely running 1 lap. never got to reschedule until now (i'm tentatively set for mid-october in vegas), but am very much looking forward to this. my brief time behind the wheel of the '96-7 arrows f1 car left me with much the same impressions, and reinforced how incompetent i am, despite having spent a lot of time in lesser race cars as a very amateur driver. you've done a good job of summarizing what lrs is selling here- a fantasy day for f1 wannabes and neverweres who're willing to ante up $$ for bragging rights- apparently, i'm one of them. wish me luck in october!
