(Slalom course? In Maine? Up here, a slalom is a place ladies go to git
their hair done. Ayup.)
Re the prescription: Point taken. A lot of my cars seem to spend most of
the time on jack stands - maybe that's the reason for my bias. Also, I
wasn't thinking so much about competitive hero stories as "boy-racer" ones.
(I doubt I'd want my money back.)
But "equal time"? How about 60/40?
