I had been meaning to do this forever but between moving and a new job didn't have the opportunity; my wife knew it would be only a matter of time so for my birthday she bought me a full day lapping package at Calabogie, with a personal instructor so I would start it off right:

I was pretty nervous on my first run, but got pretty comfortable towards the end of the day.

Very nice! You truly get the full owner's experience of this car when you take it to the track. Should consider joining some of us at the Sigma Racing Time Attack series at Mosport DDT !
