<VV> Fwd: V8 Vair Mitty Video

[Ken Pepke]

Great video and it is clear that Mr. Levine is the superior driver by far.  However, the 'line' belongs to the leader who is under no obligation to move over to be passed, even though, in several places it appeared that he did just that.  In order to pass a much more powerful car, one must get him going into the corner and get the line.  If your car can't get you there, you won't get past.  The point is that there is no amount of skill level that can overcome the ability of that Corvette to drive away off every corner like Mr. Levine   was parked!  There is probably no situation in racing more frustrating than this.

> Okay folks,
> This will give you a drivers perspective of Mike Levine and his V8 Vair as he started Saturday's race dead last. Watch as he tries to get by the black Vette that was dog slow in the corners and blocking all the way. Mikey said he really wanted to punt him but, it's a no no in vintage racing.
> Enjoy! I'm sure you will.
> Crank up the sound!
